In 1978, singer-songwriter/musician Cidny (formerly known as Cindy) Bullens released Desire Wire. AllMusic’s William Ruhlmann calls it “One of the great lost rock albums of the 1970s, Bullens’ debut release is full of tough, passionate, incredibly catchy rock & roll played to the hilt and sung with fire”. Bullens is best known for serving as backup vocalist on tours and albums with Elton John and Rod Stewart, as well as providing vocals on the soundtrack of the 1978 feature film Grease. In 2012, Bullens publicly came out as a transgender man and changed his name to Cidny Bullens.
