Raised in Blackpool & disillusioned with school, The Kut found comfort in the coils of punk rock, forming her first band at 14. They would gig in Lancashire & go on to win the local Battle of the Bands – but confusion struck when their drummer was hospitalised with schizophrenia. The Kut turned to psychology for answers & returned to London to study it. Inspired by London’s street artists, Maha assumed the tag ‘The Kut’, which would become her stage name.

It was here in London she became fascinated by mixing genres, drumming & breakbeats. Finally finding her line up, now a collective of 7 on rotation, she started selling guitars on Denmark Street post-studies & planned to build a studio, soon forming a bedroom label to release demos.

Lythium -

Lythium were founded in late 2018, and have since played venues such as 53 Degrees, Percy's Cafe Bar, Night 'n' Day Cafe and West Street Live among many others.

The main aims of the band are to make music that would be exciting to play live and to stay loyal to the idea that what you can hear on the recording can be played live too. Focusing on powerful melodies and strong vocals, the band has managed to create a sound that is simultaneously unique and recognisable.
