Artist History Founder member Gary CUT pioneered the Welsh Industrial music scene in the late 1980s with his band CUT TUNES. The new millennium sees his welcome return to the global scene with CUT 23. The first album METAL GHOSTS, available on Naga Records, features Gary's unique dark songs and distinctive metal/ethnik percussion, combined with keyboards and production courtesy of Dewi Evans (Rheinallt H. Rowlands) and vocals from Betsan Williams (ex-Sugarcubes). Gary is currently working on the eagerly anticipated follow-up album, as well as a Dark Dance project with Laurie Gordon, lead singer with ace Canadian Indie band Chiwawa.
