Cynthia "Cindy" Leigh Wilson is a singer, songwriter, and a founding member of new wave rock band The B-52s. The B-52's were formed when Wilson, alongside her older brother and guitarist Ricky, organist and vocalist Kate Pierson, drummer and percussionist Keith Strickland, and vocalist Fred Schneider played an impromptu musical jam session after sharing a tropical Flaming Volcano drink at a local Chinese restaurant. They later played their first concert in 1977 at a Valentine's Day party for their friends.
