COMMAND V: Cynthia Sley, Rachel Dengiz, and Pat Irwin started recording songs together in their own unique way. They combined their different musical styles to create a personally psychedelic, maniacally maneuvered, cryptically questioning sound. As lead singer of the Bush Tetras, Cynthia Sley helped create one of the most distinctive bands of the 1980's New York City club scene. Pat Irwin, founding member of both Eight Eyed Spy and The Raybeats, and later of The B-52s, was also part of the same pioneering downtown "no wave" music world. These bands had nothing in common except an adversion to the ordinary. Cynthia Sley, Rachel Dengiz, and Pat Irwin are now Command V.
