More than a band, WIB is a show of original horror, sci-fi & surf music in a unique theatrical pop/rock experience. Anywhere from 3 to 7 gals sing like ‘60’s girl groups & dance, wearing neon wigs & matching bikinis, backed by a 3-guy band. Costumes, props. Sound similar to B-52's. Perform NYC Halloween Parade.
