The Pulltops deliver another unforgettable single with their latest release ‘Red Eye Open Sky’. The Milwaukee duo bring their blend of nostalgic grit of indie-rock with the infectious energy of power-pop, plunging into the haunting introspection of night drives and the bittersweet pull of the open road. Drummer Mark Pierret and guitarist Tom Crowell, whose backgrounds span everything from old-school country and soul to the experimental depths of the underground, fuse their influences to create a unique yet familiar sound.
‘Red Eye Open Sky’ captures that feeling of being caught between here and there, where every mile is a bridge between longing and hope. The lyrics unravel as a late-night confession, weaving themes of distance, memory, and the promise of connection. Through lines describing a traveller as “lonely satellite,” the track embodies a sense of drifting that hits hard, resonating with anyone who’s felt both the excitement and isolation of travel.
While rooted in classic rock and pop frameworks, The Pulltops combine fresh elements, balancing raw emotion with polished hooks. ‘Red Eye Open Sky’ is a soundtrack for those reflective moments when you’re miles away but just a heartbeat from home.
