Jessy Bulbo (born Jessica Araceli Carrillo Cuevas on 10 October 1974 in Mexico City) is a Mexican singer, bassist and composer, commonly associated with the riot grrrl movement. Jessy began her career around the turn of the century in the punk rock band Las Ultrasónicas, in which she sang and played the bass. Later, she started a solo career. After leaving the group in the early 2000s, she released her first solo single, "Maldito", in 2006. The song was featured in East Los FM, one of the fictional radio stations in the 2013 action-adventure game Grand Theft Auto V. As she got to know different bands, she was introduced to Tere Farsissa and Ali Gua-Gua, who invited her to their newly formed band Las Ultrasónicas in 1996.
As she joined the band, she adopted the nickname "Bulbo" ("bulb" in Spanish) due to her obsession with valve amplifiers, which often had bulb-like tubes.
In 2000, the band went on hiatus and Bulbo went to Xalapa, where she formed Bulbo Raquídeo. The following year, she returned to Mexico City to record Oh sí, más más!!! with Las Ultrasónicas, but left the group the year after, in November,] following several conflicts and arguments.On 13 August 2020, she performed the first of a series of shows on rooftops around Mexico City in order to support independent artists that were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
