The Beach Boys x ROXY Collection


The Beach Boys' songs brought us into their world of partying, surfing and chasing California girls. If that's not Rock and Roll we don't know what is.

The Beach Boys mastered that quintessential West Coast summertime sound with their complex harmonies and unmistakable melodies at a time when the Beatles British invasion was in full swing. It was the band's music that truly captured the spirit of the Californian lifestyle in the sixties, largely contributing to the creation of the hippie subculture.

With over eighty chart topping songs worldwide, a Grammy Award and an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, The Beach Boys continue to bring us Good Vibrations fifty years after the sound was first introduced.

ROXY team rider and fellow musician Justine Mauvin filled us in on how The Beach Boys have influenced her music -

When you hear The Beach Boys, what do you think of first?

I really think The Beach Boys are the creators of the "Californian Myth". They opened people's eyes to the Californian surf lifestyle and became the first American band to rival English phenomena, the Beatles. The impact of their music is that we all have the vision of Southern California with palm trees, surfers boys and pretty girls on the beach. They kind of created a new and cool West Coast in the 60s.

Have The Beach Boys had an impact on your style of music today?

The Beach Boys have surely made an impact. The band is one of the ancestors of surf and pop music, with its light and dynamic rhythms, even psychedelic at times.


What inspires you when you are listening their songs?

What I appreciate and probably try to achieve are the intricate vocal harmonies that Beach Boys songwriter, Brian Wilson created. All of their songs are very melodic and that is something that really resonates with me musically.
