The B-52s

The B-52's are a New Wave rock band formed in Athens, Georgia, in 1976.

The band's name comes from a particular beehive hairdo that is wrapped around, instead of teased, with an open "hole" in the top resembling the nose cone of the airplane of the same name. During their early years, wigs of that style were often worn by the band's female singers Cindy Wilson and Kate Pierson. The correct name for the band is The B-52's.
