Biography
Lee James Gaze is a Welsh musician. He is the lead guitarist, and one of the founding members, of the Welsh/American alternative rock band No Devotion, and a former member and co-founder of the Welsh rock band Lostprophets.
Career
In 1991, Gaze joined Ian Watkins and Mike Lewis's first band called Aftermath. They recorded one demo, and performed live a couple of times. In 1995, Gaze and Watkins formed Fleshbind, and recorded a demo named "Discontent". The band recorded two more demos and saw some success in their three-year career, including playing a show supporting Welsh band Feeder; at the London Astoria.
Tired with the lack of direction, Gaze and Watkins disbanded Fleshbind and formed Lostprophets alongside Mike Chiplin on drums, later recruiting Mike Lewis, Stu Richardson and Jamie Oliver. Gaze was the lead guitarist and one of the band's key songwriters. Lostprophets disbanded in October 2013 after Watkins was arrested, and then jailed for 29 years. The remaining members later formed a new band, No Devotion, with Geoff Rickly as lead singer. The band have released two albums, Permanence (2015) and No Oblivion (2022).
After Watkins was murdered in prison in October 2025, Gaze was the first ex-Lostprophets member to make any kind of public statement, thanking a fan on Twitter for their "kind words" after the fan had replied to an earlier thread.
