Beach Boys co-founder Al Jardine is set to release his first ever solo album, A Postcard from California, April 3rd, 2012. A veteran of the music industry, Jardine is a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and a proud recipient of a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. The album showcases Al Jardine’s personal style while evoking the classic sound of the Beach Boys, who are reuniting for their 50th anniversary tour this summer. This is the first time the group has toured together with Brian Wilson in 20 years.
