Cullah (Born Ian McCullough on April 27, 1991 in Milwaukee, WI) is a multi-disciplinary artist, producer, songwriter, engineer, and entrepreneur who has been releasing an open-source album of music every year, since 2006, on April 27th.

His performance style varies in instrumentation and accompaniment. Referred to as “The Beck of Milwaukee”, Cullah explores a variety of musical styles. Backed by different ensembles, Cullah may be found playing a folk set with a banjo and guitar or an electronic set with samplers and synths. No matter the instruments, Cullah’s voice comes through strongly. His performance is dynamic and captivating in a way to connect with his audience that is deep and primal, as he has been taught by his family, passed on through the generations.

Cullah describes his pull towards music as “not a choice” and as a magnetic and constant presence in his life; as inherent to his being, perhaps even in his DNA. His grandfather Dick Wolff, orphaned at a young age, would perform the fiddle in bars in Erin, Wisconsin to make just enough money to eat that day. His mother, Mary, was one of seventeen children including eleven daughters (all named Mary) and 6 sons. His grandfather told endless stories of divine visions and visitations from angels, many delivering music. Cullah’s two grandparents and seventeen aunts and uncles would participate in the largest family band in American history called The Wolff Family Band.

Cullah’s artistry has a strong storytelling focus as he explores the deeper meanings behind myths and their symbols rooted in the sacred divine inspiration of Awen and in theological, mythological, and philosophical topics such as Jungian Psychology, Gnosticism, Tolkeinism, etc.
