About Gary Numan
British singer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Gary Numan is a synth-pop trailblazer who helped push the genre into the mainstream with his shimmering 1979 hit “Cars.” Born on March 8, 1958, Gary Anthony James Webb grew up in Hammersmith, West London.
After moving to a village in Surrey, his brooding teenage shyness eventually became the catalyst behind his paranoid yet theatrical productions.
Liberated by music, Numan broke out in the late ‘70s as the frontman of New Wave band Tubeway Army, before releasing his solo debut, The Pleasure Principle, in 1979.
