The B-52s have been together for over 40 years, it’s hard to find a group of musicians that have endured the highs and lows for that length of time, but then again the B-52s are no ordinary group. Cindy Wilson, Kate Pierson, Keith Strickland, and Fred Schneider have seen it all.
Well before REM, coming from the same Athens, GA, the B-52s have hit the charts with “Love Shack,” “Rock Lobster,” and “Roam,” they’ve sold millions of records being exactly who they are; that wacky pop/rock band with the retro look. Most fans think the band’s name was derived from the B-52 aircraft. It’s actually from the beehive hairdo; taken from a dream Keith Strickland had one night. The B-52s are out on a limited tour this fall, so be sure to check them out if you can…
