It’s hard to believe that cosmic de-evolution of music was a thing in 2025, but here we are. Our lucky number hit, and we just got an announcement of cosmic proportion. The word is that the icons from Athens Georgia are not done just yet with us earthlings, The B-52s are set to hit the road and what a tour, it features punk icons DEVO and the queen of new wave, Lene Lovich.
Truth is the B52’s are a larger-than-life band who have been providing us with out of this world music since 1976. The trio features Fred Snyder behind the mic, with the two co0leads Kate Pierson and Condy Wilson. Their hits span decades, impacting every aspect of human existence. Songs like “Rock Lobster,” “Planet Claire,” “Give Me Back My Man,” “Private Idaho,” “Whammy Kiss,” “Party Out of Bounds,” “Strobe Light,” and “Roam” are just a small sample of this era-defining band.
