Pulp is an influential English rock band that originated in Sheffield in 1978. At the height of their critical and commercial success, the band comprised the talented lineup 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).
Led by the distinctive and charismatic frontman Jarvis Cocker, Pulp became renowned for their unique blend of alternative rock, Britpop, and art-pop sensibilities. Their insightful and often wry lyrics, coupled with Cocker's evocative vocal delivery, garnered them a dedicated following and widespread acclaim.
Throughout their career, Pulp released several critically acclaimed albums, including "Different Class," which propelled them to mainstream success and earned them the prestigious Mercury Prize in 1996. Their signature hit "Common People" remains an anthem of the Britpop era.
Though the band went on hiatus after 2002, Pulp's impact on the music landscape endures, and they occasionally reunite to tour and release music.
