Bulla

Bulla is a American rock band founded in 1995, that currently consists of Samuel Rosenberg (a.k.a. Stanley Miller) (vocals), Gucci (drums), Michael Sullivan (keyboards) and Bill Lawrence (guitar). The group announced that they will be in a indefinitive hiatus in 2016, but they later announced their return in 2017, without John Langley (who later returned to the band, two months). Like Patrick Johnson Five, Bulla also has topless women in their album booklets, music videos and some single covers.
