Leroy Pullins

Carl Leroy Pullins (November 12, 1940 - 1984) was an American country singer and guitarist.

Pullins played in a group he put together called The LeSabres in the late 1950s, then relocated to Nashville.[1] He gigged there for several years and eventually signed with Kapp Records in 1966; Kapp issued his debut single, "I'm a Nut", that same year. "I'm a Nut" was a hit novelty record written by Pullins himself, and reached #18 on the Billboard Country charts and #57 on the Billboard Hot 100. He released two albums on Kapp, one in 1966 and one in 1967, but further singles were not as successful as "I'm a Nut", and he eventually abandoned his career in music.[1] He moved to Berea, Kentucky, where he was raised, and worked as a firefighter.[1] He died of a heart attack at age 44 in May 1984.[1]
