Details:
Cindy Bullens is a two-time Grammy nominee whose 25-year career in the music business has included working with Elton John, Bonnie Raitt, Bob Dylan, Emmylou Harris, Lucinda Williams, Bryan Adams, Rod Stewart and many others. She sang three lead vocals on the "Grease" movie soundtrack and has recorded several of her own critically acclaimed albums, including her first, 1979's "Desire Wire," which catapulted Cindy into the international spotlight. Cindy took time off to raise her children and write for other artists until, in 1996, Cindy lost her 11 year-old daughter Jessie to cancer. That tragedy inspired Cindy to write and record her widely acclaimed 1999 CD "Somewhere Between Heaven and Earth", featuring appearances by Bonnie Raitt, Lucinda Williams, Bryan Adams, Beth Neilson Chapman, Rodney Crowell, and a haunting duet with her elder daughter, Reid. Since its release, Cindy has received worldwide attention from press, radio, and television, including NBC's Today Show, CBS This Morning, Conan O'Brien Late Night, The New York Times, People Magazine, Rolling Stone and many more. The CD also received the Best Rock Album award in 2000 by the AFIM Independent Music Association. Cindy took a break from touring to record her most recent CD, "Neverland," co-produced by Cindy and Steve Earle's Twang Trust partner, Ray Kennedy. Once again, Cindy's friends make appearances on backing vocalsóthis time featuring Emmylou Harris, Steve Earle and John Hiatt. Cindy's songs and spirit have been compared to Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young and Bonnie Raitt: whether she is on stage with her full band or playing solo, she commands the audience with her strong physical energy and the stark truth of her songs. The songs on "Neverland" bring Cindy back to the bare-bones fun of her rock 'n roll roots while continuing to explore the depth of emotion she has found in her life experiences. "Neverland" garnered her several spots on various Top Ten CDs lists after its release in the USA, including The Washington Post. The "Neverland" CD was released in Europe in July 2003. Cindy currently is back on the road, touring all over Europe and the US, with plans to perform in Australia in April 2004. At the same time, she is writing songs and planning to record her next album in the spring of 2004.
