Bullo Pill are a indie five piece from Hertfordshire. Our sound is pretty eclectic, influences include Suede, Joy Division, Ramones, and Pixies. We are just playing our first London gigs and we're having a great time playing live.History: After a night of playing records to an empty club Ben realised that if he were in a band at least he would be sharing the stage with some other people. So he started learning how to play guitar. Then he called his friend Tom (a big fat bass player) who had recently been kicked out of a band for being too lazy. Tom recruited Lee O'Brien "the drummer" (they had played in a covers band together a few years previously). Unfortunately none of the three could sing and Ben couldn't play guitar yet so some new recruits were required. Luckily Ben hit the talent jackpot after placing an ad on the livecircuit forum and Steve the lead guitarist and backing vocalist joined.James the singer joined too.Their first practice was a good laugh, with covers by David Bowie, the Pixies, the Strokes and Oasis. Now all that was needed was a name. After: Last Exit, the Tackleberrys, the 900's, the Evil Ernies, Deakins Wheels and the Hungry Ghosts had all been ruled out James suggested Bullo Pill, named after a village with a railway bridge. Nobody objected and so the Mighty BULLO PILL was born.
