(Long Beach) Hollywood’s female-fronted, post-everything, combustible quartet BULL LEE will rock the 3rd Annual Long Beach Car Show for the second year in a row on Saturday, May 6th at St. Anthony’s Elementary School in Long Beach.
If you like your rock delivered hard, fast, with hooks, no fat, and a healthy dose of sex appeal; this band is for you. U.K. journalist Sarah Dobbs called their music “shout-along stuff, sleazy rock for playing loud, in darkened rooms” and they take no exception.The BL’s come a long way since last year’s LBCS performance at which time they had only been performing together for 3 months. They rocked the show with their last of a handful of boring singers.The following month, guitarist John Dissed and BC (bass) -- the co-writers and masterminds behind the band -- discovered NY transplant, Trisha Hanudel at a karaoke bar spitting out sexy versions of 80’s covers. One week later she was in the band and their first gig was soon after at the Burning Man Decompression festival in downtown L.A. They had no idea what they had until they watched video footage of the show and were blown away by her performance. “Trisha’s the real deal” says Dissed, “no one can touch her; not Love, Jett, Harry, and sure as f**k not anyone on a stage today.”This year’s performance promises to be a completely different experience. With almost a year of continuous gigs with Hanudel under their belts, Bull Lee provides an exciting, kick-in-the-ass alternative to the understated “indie” disco that has taken over the airwaves of late.It is time for your wake-up call.BULL LEE can also be seen Wednesday, May 3 at the Blue Café in Long Beach (www.thebluecafe.com); and on campus at Cerritos College in Norwalk on May 9 at 12 noon. Their self-released 3-song “Fairfax Ave” EP can be purchased online through their web-site. The EP is a pre-cursor to a 10-song release due in June.www.bulllee.comThe Long Beach Car Show: Saturday, May 6, St. Anthony Elementary School Campus, 600 Olive St., Long Beach, CA 90802, Admission is FREE from 10am on.www.longbeachcarshow.com
