He is also the lead vocalist, guitarist and principal songwriter of English rock band [New Model Army](/source/New_Model_Army_(band)),[1] which he formed in 1980 together with drummer [Robert Heaton](/source/Robert_Heaton) and bassist Stuart Morrow in their hometown of [Bradford](/source/Bradford), West Yorkshire. In the early 1980s he performed under the stage name of "Slade the Leveller",[2] referring to the political movement of the [Levellers](/source/Levellers).

He was also a member of Red Sky Coven, which he co-founded, with Rev Hammer, [Joolz Denby](/source/Joolz_Denby) and Brett Selby. He collaborated with Denby and Heaton on the studio album *Hex* (1987), which put music to Denby's poetry, and then recorded "Weird Sister" and "Spirit Stories", also putting music to Denby's poetry.[citation needed] In 2003, Sullivan debuted as a solo artist with the studio album *Navigating by the Stars*.
