Paul Morphis [guitar, vocals, & any other instrument on stage] - this Greek stallion is a graduate of the University of Central Arkansas who currently does nothing but play music and spend time camping/hiking/climbing etc... we feel sorry for him!
Joe Sundell [left handed guitar, banjo, harmonica, vocals] - this Monticello Beaux is a graduate of Hendrix College. He uses his knowledge of quantum physics and religious thought to create bodacious beats and mad rhymes. His gift of gab is complete, his style is immaculate, his defense is negotiable.
DJ Bennett [bass guitar, vocals] - was discovered in a mine shaft around the town of Ozark. He describes his heinous rhythms and awsome beats as the underground cycles of da earff, which he refers to as "the humm." ra-ra-ra-ra raise it up!
Graeme Higgins [drums] - his incredibly chiseled features have made him a hit drummer with the modern jazz fusion combo, Midnight Express, as well as the internationally renowned Christian Metal sensatioon, Kaleo. His rhythmic stylings know no linguistic boundries. He describes his role in the band as "the native taming the wild mustang."

Influences
It would be impossible to say that Damn Bullets has a sound that has never been heard before because their sound incorporates many elements from recognizable genres like Delta Blues, Rockabilly, Folk, Bluegrass, Funk & Soul, and countless other descriptions made by listeners. The members have spent most of their lives in Arkansas but have been influenced by a broad spectrum of music from outide the state such as: Heavy Metal, Jazz, Electronica, Chamber Music [vocal & instrumental], Classic Country, Bluegrass, and the list goes on and on...

Damn Bullets came together in the fall of 2004 - like many bands, the guys started out just jammin' in a small apartment in Conway. Before locating a drummer the group performed a short set on a Hendrix College radio show where, luckily a listener recorded the entire show.
Only a short 3 weeks later the drummer was in place and a show secured at The White House [then common venue for locals] where the group performed a majority of originals in a 3 hour set to a receptive college crowd.
Since then those Damn Bullets have played popular Little Rock and Conway venues such as: The Underground Pub, White Water Tavern, The Flying Saucer, KUCA/KCON radio, Locust St., Odie's Acoustic Cafe, Arena's Billiards, Spectators Bar/Grill, Juanita's, Sticky Fingerz...
Since the conception they have presented a wide variety of original tunes and have had many guest musicians sit in such as: Tony Nash [piano/vocals/trumpet], Adrienne Vena [vocals], Noel Camera [baritone sax/piano], Seth Shumate [piano/vocals/harmonica], and several others.
