For those who enjoy Guitar-Driven Pop with a dual guitar kick, Bully Pulpit consistently produces. The songs speak for themselves, but the energetic live show is a feast for the ears, eyes and soul. Bully Pulpit is a term usually used to describe a position of power that affords the holder a wide audience. The ever-growing audience that call Bully Pulpit their own have followed the band right to the top of the heap. "Watch out for the 'Pulpit... It's downright infectious being in the audience." Shred - 104.1 WBCN The recently released full-length disc "Believe" is filled with signature super-crunchy, overdriven guitar tones and layered with sweet vocal harmonies and almost surf-ish guitar hooks. Matthew Dalton's unique vocal delivery laces it all with a silver lining. Songs like "Snow" and "Naughty Girl" have earned such labels as "instantly appealing" and "in your mind for days". "a band that I definitely expect to hear more from and about soon." Debbie Catalano - Soundcheck Magazine Through numerous lineup changes, Bully Pulpit has persevered, though the current lineup is arguably their best. Founding member Matthew Dalton (Vocals/Guitar ) is best known for his unique and engaging vocal style. Growing up in Dorchester, MA., Matt honed his skills playing with "Everyday Moses" in venues such as the legendary Rathskeller, and Aerosmith's venture into club ownership, Mama Kin's. ( Both victims of a floundering original music scene in the late 90's ) Matt's powerful and unique singing voice, endearing no-nonsense stage manner, and excellent songwriting are key to Bully Pulpit's success. The other half of Bully Pulpit's songwriting team, Brian Fitzpatrick (Guitar), adds tasteful lead guitar and a harder edge to the Pulpit's unapologetic pop. Better known as "Fitzy", he spent his early days playing with bands that were "not real bands", except for maybe his stint with members of another of Boston's finest bands, "Rocketscience". When asked he'll tell you, "The eighth grade dinner dance was rockin." On Bass, a true veteran of Rock n' Roll, is Mark Nigro. Longtime member of "The Irresponsibles". In over ten years with The Irros' Mark toured the country supporting Adrian Belew ( Guitarist for Dream Theater, Frank Zappa, David Bowie among many others ), while recording countless albums with a wide array of artists as a studio musician. Bully Pulpit was quick to enlist Mark McCarthy. Back in Boston after "too long", and armed with Hardcore and Funk influences, Mark has injected new life into this sound. His energetic style is a powerful kick in the rear applied to an already adrenaline-packed sound. Check out the artist's website: http://www.bullyband.com Track List: 1. Held You Last 2.
