Cindy Bullens (born March 21, 1955) is an American singer and songwriter who grew up in Massachusetts. She released two albums in the late 1970s on United Artists and Casablanca and another in 1989. Her 1978 debut album, Desire Wire is described flatly by William Ruhlmann in allmusic as: "One of the great lost rock albums of the '70s, Bullens' debut release is full of tough, passionate, incredibly catchy rock & roll played to the hilt and sung with fire". Her early albums anticipated later work by a host of 1980s female and female-identified rock artists, from Pat Benatar, to Blondie, to the Go-Go's, to Headpins.
She provided background vocals as one of the Sex-o-lettes on the 1974 album Disco Tex & the Sex-o-lettes. She provided vocals on three songs ("It's Raining on Prom Night," "Mooning," and "Freddy, My Love") on the soundtrack of the 1977 feature film, Grease. Her performance on the soundtrack earned her a Grammy Award nomination for best rock vocal performance.
Bullens got her start in the music business by performing as a backup vocalist with Elton John on three major tours, his album Blue Moves, and his hit with Kiki Dee, "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" (both released in 1976). She withdrew from the music business in the early 1980s to raise a family, returning in the early and mid-1990s as a songwriter and then later as a touring and recording artist. Since 1999, she has toured extensively all over the US, Canada, Europe and Australia, has appeared on several major TV shows, including Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Today Show, and CBS This Morning and many radio and TV stations around the world. She is featured in two documentaries, On This Island and Space Between Breaths (for which she scored the music). Cindy wrote the musical Islands in 2000, which played on Broadway for a special performance at the New Victory Theater in September 2001, two weeks after 9/11.
