The B-52's are an American New Wave / Art Pop band that formed in Athens, Georgia, USA in 1976. The band consists of *Kate Pierson* on organ and vocals, *Cindy Wilson* on guitar and vocals, *Ricky Wilson* on guitar (who sadly passed away in 1985), *Fred Schneider* on keyboards and vocals, and *Keith Strickland*, who initially played drums but later switched to guitar after Ricky Wilson's passing.
Known for their unique sound and energetic performances, The B-52's have been influential in the music industry. Their music combines elements of rock, pop, punk, and dance to create a distinct style that is instantly recognizable. With hits like "Love Shack" and "Rock Lobster," they have gained a dedicated fan base worldwide.
If you enjoy the sounds of artists such as Oingo Boingo, Missing Persons, or Adam Ant, then you will definitely appreciate the music of The B-52's. Their catchy melodies and quirky lyrics make them a standout act in the New Wave genre. Don't miss out on experiencing their infectious energy!

New Wave / Post Punk

Constructing lively fare assembled from quirky riffs, bizarre albeit smooth harmonies, strident lead vocals, jagged tempos, and infectious choruses. At heart, Cosmic Thing is a dance-your-ass-off soiree. Leader Fred Schneider delights in kitsch, his deliveries combining goofy pronouncements and half-rapped words that speak the co-ed ensembles long tradition of originality, flair, campiness, and irreverence.
