"Luau" is a song written by Bruce Morgan. The song was recorded by American pop band The Beach Boys during their early years as a recording group. The song was never released on any of the band's albums, although it was released as the B-side of the band's first ever single "Surfin'". The song was lost in the archives for many years until it was found and released on the band's 1991 compilation album Lost & Found (1961-62).
