The Beach Boys were famously dubbed “America’s Band” by Ronald Reagan — just one of the many presidents they’ve performed for over the decades. And now the California icons might add one more Commander-in-Chief to their resume.

PEOPLE can confirm that Donald Trump has tapped the Beach Boys, currently fronted by Mike Love without his cousin and fellow cofounder Brian Wilson, to perform at his presidential inauguration in January. A rep for the Trump campaign did not immediately respond to request for comment.

At present, the band have yet to formally accept the invitation.

“The Beach Boys have been asked to perform as part of the inauguration festivities. But no decision has been made at this point as to how or whether they will participate,” a Beach Boys spokesperson tells PEOPLE. “We will let you know as soon as a decision is final.”

1. 'Dennis drowned in 1983 and Carl died of lung cancer in 1998.

After Carl's death, many live configurations of the band fronted by Mike Love and Bruce Johnston continued to tour into the 2000s while other members pursued solo projects. For the band's 50th anniversary, all the current surviving members briefly reunited for a new studio album and world tour. Even though Wilson and Jardine do not perform with Love and Johnston's band, they remain a part of the Beach Boys' corporation, Brother Records Inc.'

4. Fuck Mike Love

And apparently People doesn't know that Love fired Wilson and Jardine after the 50th anniversary tour supporting their best album in 40 years, and that Wilson and Jardine are now touring with another former Beach Boy, Blondie Chaplin...

Love is as masterful at marketing baseball caps as Trump though... Asshole.
