The new That Lucky Old Sun DVD features a full-length performance of Wilson's latest album, filmed live at Capitol Studios on May 19, 2008 in 5.1 Surround and 2.0 Stereo audio, as well as a new feature-length film, Going Home, directed and edited by George Dougherty, which documents the making of the album and Wilson's return to his original record label, Capitol Records.

The DVD's bonus features include track-by-track audio commentary by Wilson and his That Lucky Old Sun songwriting partner and band member, Scott Bennett, for the live Capitol Studios performance, behind-the-scenes footage from the album's recording sessions, and recent promotional interviews and performances by Wilson for Yahoo!

The GRAMMY Museum, opening December 6 in Los Angeles, will debut its "An Evening With" signature public program with Brian Wilson on January 15. Wilson will be interviewed onstage by the Museum's Executive Director, Robert Santelli, before performing a few songs for an intimate audience of 200 people. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit http://www.grammymuseum.org.

That Lucky Old Sun has received rave reviews from top music magazines including Rolling Stone, Spin, MOJO, and Uncut, with Rolling Stone praising the album as "Brian's strongest new work in years." Wilson and his band just completed a November tour of the new album to 11 major U.S. cities that earned accolades from fans and the media alike.

The dawning of a new California morning for Brian Wilson, That Lucky Old Sun continues the awe-inspiring concept album journey that he first began four decades ago. Wilson's songwriting, arranging and producing talents came together in harmonious glory for The Beach Boys' 1966 classic, Pet Sounds, and have continued to evolve during his solo career, highlighted by his 2004 critically acclaimed Brian Wilson Presents SMiLE. Lyrically and in Wilson's incomparably lush, evocative arrangements, That Lucky Old Sun adds a new chapter to Wilson's conceptual presentations. Pitchfork Media's album review rates Wilson's That Lucky Old Sun as "his finest non-Smile album since the golden age of the Beach Boys," and adds, "That Lucky Old Sun neatly closes the circle he began drawing in 1961 with the single 'Surfin',' returning him to an idealized Southern California..."

Following numerous nominations, Wilson won a well-deserved Grammy Award for Best Rock Instrumental Performance (2004) for "Mrs. O'Leary's Cow" and he was inducted into the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2006. Last December, he was feted as a leading cultural icon by The Kennedy Center Honors alongside Diana Ross, Martin Scorsese, Steve Martin and Leon Fleisher.
