Brief Bio



Gary Numan (born Gary Anthony James Webb on March 8, 1958) is an English singer, composer, and musician. He is considered to be one of the pioneers of electronic music and is widely known for his chart-topping 1979 hits "Are 'Friends' Electric?" and "Cars". Numan's signature style combines gloomy themes of depersonalisation and alienation accompanied by energetic synthesizer work. Numan is also a licensed aviator.
