Listen "Surfin' USA"
Episode Synopsis
It was a time of surfboards, sun soaked beaches, and teenage dreams. A group of boys from Hawthorne, California formed a band and created a sound that perfectly captured the culture of early 1960's southern California. Teenagers from all over America listened to their songs and dreamed of being a surfer somewhere along the coast. In this first episode of The Beach Boys files we explore the breakout hit Surfin' USA and how the song put this young band on the map.
