"In short, the Minneapolis band are gifted not only in music but also in the warmth they radiate." - Our Sound Music LTD
"Sincere, sentimental and introspective, Pullstring explores human vulnerability and fragility in a heart-aching but simultaneously heart-warming way." - The Other Side Reviews
"The up tempo energy of this track [When It Began] is quintessential indie rock; the chord changes on the chorus feel like they were probably first jammed out in a garage session. We mean that with the highest praise! The song feels like it has a gritty, rooted style to it. The vocals remind me a bit of what I first liked about Thrice’s Dustin Kensrue. I really appreciate the “don’t let life pass you by” line. There’s a lot of that going on with people merely enduring life; this song reminds us to live with joy and vibrancy. The expressive and energetic guitar solo accentuates the “seize the day” sentiment of the track." - Ear to the Ground
"Pullstring have a knack for displaying their intention of the song within the first few seconds. There are no impulsive changes, the flow is maintained as a sacrosanct part of their passion for music." - Good Music Radar

Bio
Pullstring is a MN alternative rock ensemble putting to words what it's like to be a young adult in the '20s. Their eclectic brand of alternative rock fuses clever lyrics and wailing guitars with a bangin' rhythm section and a fantastic energy that will make you want to bop bop the night away.
Pullstring is a highly anticipated up-and-coming band and have played to packed bars around the Midwest including The 7th St Entry, Amsterdam Bar & Hall, and Mousetrap Tavern. In just six months, Pullstring went from being strangers in a studio to opening for an international touring alternative rock band at the Entry.
The band released their debut single "Sunday Afternoon" and their debut EP "Greatest Threads EP" in April 2022. Pullstring also debuted three singles ahead of their debut album release in late 2022: "Twenty Something", "When It Began", and "The Only Thing."
Their debut album "All I Know Is What I've Seen" was released on Friday December 9th.
