About Me

Bullette's debut album "The Secrets" is now available for FREE at www.bullette.net - a joyous fulfillment of fine hours of experiments. Download all the songs here .
Philadelphia's City Paper gave Bullette a prize!
Best Album You Can Get for Free and Without a Guilty Conscience
"Monika Bullette's "The Secrets" has quickly become every music blogger's best friend. Since the album's Internet release in May, the tally of full-zip downloads is well past 2K. The Web-savvy Bullette ain't too bad behind a microphone either, sprinkling her vast influences from Nancy Sinatra to Holly GoLightly to Stereolab. One thing is clear: This isn't just another folk singer."
