Annie's Music Center is proud to welcome BULLETBOYS to Cincinnati on Saturday, November 14th as the original lineup rolls through town.
Formed in the heart of the late '80s Sunset Strip scene, BulletBoys carved out their own lane with a blues-infused hard rock sound that set them apart from the glam metal pack. Their 1988 self-titled debut delivered massive hits like "Smooth Up in Ya" and their now-iconic cover of The O'Jays' "For the Love of Money," and their videos topped MTV charts and still pull millions of views on YouTube today. Albums like 1991's Freakshow cemented their reputation for hard rock grit and undeniable groove.
Now, for the first time in years, the original lineup is back together. Marq Torien on vocals, Mick Sweda on guitar, Lonnie Vencent on bass, and Jimmy D'Anda on drums. The core four whose chemistry defined the band's signature sound, back on the road and ready to close an unfinished chapter with the wisdom and fire of everything they've lived through since.
