Brian Douglas Wilson (1942) is an American singer-songwriter, musician, composer, arranger, and record producer widely considered one of the pillars of 20th-century popular music. Wilson is best known for his work with The Beach Boys, which he co-founded, led, and served as the primary creative force behind. His musical influence spans from surf rock to psychedelic pop to symphonic opera. Wilson has composed some of the most iconic songs in music history, including "Good Vibrations", "God Only Knows", and "Wouldn't It Be Nice". His creative genius has often been overshadowed by personal struggles and mental health issues that have marked his life.
