Gary Numan - full name Gary Anthony James Webb - is a trailblazer in changing the landscape of the UK’s budding wave scene.

In a musical career that has spanned over 44 years, the London-born musician started his career by forming a band called Tubeway Army.

Initially beginning under the stage name Valerian, the now 64-year-old was successful with the band and topped the charts with the album ‘Replicas’.

After disbanding a few months later, Webb embarked on a singles career under the moniker Gary Numan - the rest is history.

His debut album ‘The Pleasure Principle’ arrived in 1979 and has gone on to release 20 more successful studio albums since.

More recently, Numan released his 21st studio album ‘Intruder’ and at 64-years-old has shown no sign of slowing down any time soon.
