Career
While a student at the University of Western Ontario, Bulat had a radio program on Western's community and campus radio station CHRW-FM titled 'Happy Tuesday' with co-host Holly Coish.

Bulat released an independent EP in 2005 and was subsequently signed to Rough Trade Records, which released her full-length debut album, Oh, My Darling in April 2007, produced by Howard Bilerman. The album was later released in Canada by Hayden's Hardwood Records.
Her singles 'Snakes and Ladders', 'Little One' and 'I Was a Daughter' have been playlisted on CBC Radio 3 while various tracks have received airplay on college radio in Canada and the United States. Her album Oh, My Darling made the short list for the 2008 Polaris Music Prize.
Bulat has toured across Canada, the U.S., Europe; in June 2008, she ventured to Australia. She played the 2008 Dawson City Music Festival in the Yukon. Bulat cited the week she spent in the quiet and remote location as an inspiration for her songwriting.
