Pulp

Pulp are an English rock band formed in Sheffield in 1978. At their critical and commercial peak, the band consisted of Jarvis Cocker (vocals, guitar, keyboards), Russell Senior (guitar, violin), Candida Doyle (keyboards), Nick Banks (drums, percussion), Steve Mackey (bass) and Mark Webber (guitar, keyboards).

Pulp’s music is characterized by its “kitchen sink drama” lyrics, which often explore themes of social class, relationships, and everyday life in Britain. Their songs are often witty and observational, with Jarvis Cocker’s distinctive vocals and stage presence adding to their appeal.

Pulp achieved mainstream success in the mid-1990s with the release of their albums “His ‘n’ Hers” (1994) and “Different Class” (1995). “Different Class” was a massive commercial success, reaching number one on the UK Albums Chart and spawning four top ten singles, including the iconic “Common People”.

Pulp were one of the leading bands of the Britpop movement, alongside Oasis, Blur, and Suede. However, their music often had a darker and more introspective edge than some of their contemporaries.

Pulp released two more albums, “This Is Hardcore” (1998) and “We Love Life” (2001), before taking a decade-long break. They reunited in 2011 for a series of festival appearances and have continued to tour and perform sporadically since then.

Pulp are considered one of the most important and influential British bands of the 1990s. Their music continues to resonate with audiences today, and their live shows are always a special event.
