Brian Wilson, the creative singer, composer and intellectual author behind the influential pop and rock band The Beach Boys, has died, his family announced. He was 82 years old.
“We are disconsolate to announce that our beloved Father Brian Wilson has died,” said a statement in his social networks. “We are lost by words at this time.”
Asking for privacy, the statement added: “We realize that we are sharing our pain with the world.”

After the death of January 2024 of his wife, Melinda, Wilson’s family presented legal documents to appoint the publicist and manager of Brian Wilson, Jean Sievers and Leeann Hard, Wilson Business Manager, such as “Co-conservatives of the person”, according to the ABC Station of Los Angeles Kabc. The presentation cited Wilson’s doctor saying that the musician had “an important neurocognitive disorder (such as dementia),” and pointed out that Ledbetter had essentially been Wilson’s caregiver in recent years because “he could not properly meet his own personal needs of physical health, food, clothing or refuge.”
The next May, a Judge of Los Angeles approved the petition and pointed out that the evidence presented showed that Wilson himself consented to conservation.
One of the most important figures to promote the acceptance of pop music as an art form, often acclaimed as a creative genius, Brian Wilson wrote music to almost all the best known songs of the Beach Boys, from his first surf-rock classics to his most complex recordings in the mid-sixties and beyond. Wilson’s catalog includes the lasting successes “Surfin ‘USA”, “Surfer Girl”, “Fun, fun, fun”, “I get into” “help, rhonda”, “Girls of California” and “Good vibrations”, all of which evoked images of ventilated, clean and soldier adolescent fun.
