Which original Beach Boy still tours with the band as of 2025?

The original Beach Boy who still toured with the band as of 2025 was Mike Love. Love co-founded the Beach Boys in 1961 with his cousins Brian, Carl, and Dennis Wilson, along with friend Al Jardine, and he became one of the group’s main vocalists and onstage personalities.

Love sang lead on many of the band’s best-known early recordings, including “Surfin' U.S.A.,” “California Girls,” and “Do It Again.” He also co-wrote numerous Beach Boys songs, particularly with Brian Wilson, although songwriting credits became a major source of dispute and later legal action.

The wording “original Beach Boy” matters because Bruce Johnston joined later, while Jardine and Brian Wilson pursued other touring arrangements for long periods. As of 2025, Love continued leading the touring group performing under the Beach Boys name. This does not mean he was the only surviving founding member, but he was the original principal member still touring with that Beach Boys band.
