He’s getting around: Brian Wilson coming to Denmark

Elsewhere, iconic film composer Hans Zimmer and UK singer-songwriter James Morrison are also coming over

It’ll be ‘Fun, Fun, Fun’ for Beach Boys fans this summer when the legendary Beach Boy and music icon Brian Wilson returns to Denmark to perform at the Odeon in Odense.

Wilson will perform one of the most celebrated albums in history, ‘Pet Sounds’, as well as a number of other classic Beach Boys favourites as part of his Pet Sounds Tour on Thursday June 29.

With classic tunes like ‘God Only Knows’, ‘Sloop John B’ and ‘Wouldn’t It Be Nice’, ‘Pet Sounds’ is still considered one of the best albums of all time, some 41 years after it came out in 1966.

The album inspired the Beatles to make their own iconic record ‘Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Heart’s Club Band’ in 1967.

Tickets go on sale on Friday at 10:00 at ticketmaster.dk for 450-850 kroner. Wilson performed the Pet Sounds gig in Randers last year and tickets sold out quickly.

Book a room with Zimmer
Last December, Ennio Morricone brought his legendary works to Copenhagen, and now Hans Zimmer, one of Hollywood’s all-time top film composers is following suit with a performance at Forum on May 22.

The first part of Zimmer’s performance will include classic compositions from films like ‘Gladiator’, ‘The Lion King’ and ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’, while the second will contain pieces from ‘The Dark Knight’ trilogy and ‘Inception’ featuring guest appearances from several rock and pop artists.
