Jeffrey Foskett, Longtime Member of Beach Boys and Brian Wilson Touring Bands, Dies at 67
Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Jeffrey Foskett, a musician familiar to Beach Boys fans for more than four decades as a presence in the touring bands led by both Brian Wilson and Mike Love, died Monday at age 67. He had been battling anaplastic thyroid cancer. Foskett, who was deemed the “vice principal of the Beach Boys” by its core members, was the rare musician who found favor in all of that group’s sometimes competing camps over the decades.
