The Bullitts is a full on multimedia project and the brainchild of super producer du jour, Jeymes Samuel. The debut album ‘They Die By Dawn and Other Short Stories’ is due out later this year, and features some of the world’s most respected and celebrated artists including Tori Amos, Jay Electronica, Mos Def and Lucy Liu.

First heard on their hauntingly beautiful debut single ‘Close Your Eyes’, Sparks’ character is narrated throughout the album by, Lucy Liu: weaving in and out of tracks, revealing her story and the actions that led to her formidable position.
