The Pulltops

The calendar is empty.

The Pulltops were formed in December of 2001 out of the ashes of Milwaukee band, Udi Subudi. The departure of their lead singer could have ended their career, but they saw it as an opportunity. The position of lead vocals was moved to drummer Mark Pierret. Guitarist Tom Crowell fills in with the harmonies, but will do the occasional lead to keep things interesting. Rocky Dunst fills in the bottom end on bass. Their influences sit heavily in the sounds of the 60’s and 70’s. Rock, Power Pop, R&B, Blues, Country, and Psychedelic Pop are all combined to make The Pulltops sound. This 3 piece band puts forth the power of The Who, the harmonies of The Beatles, and the soul of Wilson Pickett while managing to bring them all into the new century.

They released their first CD, “8-Track,” in December of 2002. This first CD focused heavily on the Pop/Rock sounds of the 60’s. The CD went on to receive rave reviews, and gained radio play across the country. This release also landed them a slot at The International Pop Overthrow in Chicago, as well as the Milwaukee music festival, Summerfest.

The Pulltops released their second CD, “As Seen On TV,” at the end of 2004. This CD manages to keep their 60's and 70's influence while sounding fresh and new. This album, however, has more of a focus on the 70's side of rock. The songs are slightly darker than the polished pop of their first release. This album sounds more mature and more developed. Three songs from the album were selected for inclusion in the theatrical release, “Dare to Dream: The Alan Kulwicki Story.” This movie was released nation-wide in April of 2005.

The Pulltops have received airplay on over 230 radio stations across the country as well as numerous web sites. A list of stations can be found on their web site, www.thepulltops.com. Their songs are also for sale on sites such as iTunes, Yahoo’s Launchcast, CD Baby, and Amazon.com, just to name a few.

They will be launching a new radio campaign in February of 2006. With the help of Howard Rosen Promotions, they will be promoting their latest CD to 300 stations across the country.
