Biography:
Paul Morphis and Joe Sundell met over 10 years ago and began writing songs. They are both well versed in rock and roll, blues, and folk guitar and bring a unique approach to their instruments. The two share vocal duties, and along with bassist D.J. Bennett, create the outstanding three part harmonies that have brought the group so much praise.
DJ Bennett is a classically trained vocalist with a BA from the elite choir and opera program at the University of Central Arkansas. He has toured throughout the United States and logged three tours of Europe with the UCA Chamber Choir and the United States Youth Ensemble. DJ learned bass from his grandparents who are bluegrass players from Jethro, Arkansas. With an heirloom upright bass and his smooth and consistent vocal chops, he joined with Paul and Joe in 2005.
Drummer Graeme Higgins was the last member to join the band. Classically trained on snare drum, Graeme made the full-time switch to trap kit in 2001 due to the added expressiveness and showmanship. Graeme toured the Mid-South United States and Western Europe with his previous band, Kaleo. After his second tour in Europe, Graeme decided to make a stylistic change when he joined with Damn Bullets to complete their rhythm section at the end of 2005.
With the line-up complete Damn Bullets began performing and recording their original material. This effort has culminated in a strong established fan-base in Arkansas, travel to both coasts of the United States, a large catalogue of original material, extensive charity work, hundreds of live performances, and the release of their latest album “Electric Folk Boogie."
