Cindy recently formed the Cindy Wilson Band, initial doing shows around Atlanta and now spreading further across the US. This does not mean she’s leaving the B-52s, just doing her own additional thing just as Kate has been for years.
The most recent release, B-52's Anthology, ‘Nude On The Moon’, was released in January 2002 by Rhino Records. This 35 song, 2 CD set featured previously unheard material as well as the biggest hits. They continue touring throughout the USA regularly. |
