Set List: The greatest hits of Jan & Dean and The Beach Boys presented by Jan & Dean founding member, Dean Torrence.
Jan & Dean's career is well documented in the annals of pop and surf music history. Their original run in the 1960's boasts an impressive 14 gold records and 26 chart records, including Barbara Ann," The Little Old Lady from Pasadena," Dead Mans Curve, Sidewalk Surfin," and Ride the Wild Surf." Their biggest hit "Surf City," co-written by Jan & Dean and Beach Boys founder and musical genius Brian Wilson, was the first "surf" record to reach #1 in the US. Reformed in the 1980's after a successful summer tour with The Beach Boys, Jan & Dean toured the country until Jan Berry's untimely death in 2004. Carrying on with their legacy, Jan & Dean founding member Dean Torrence is proud to present:
