Gary Marx (born Mark Frederick Pearman) is a founding member of British rock band The Sisters of Mercy and its lead-guitarist and songwriter from 1979 to 1985.
He left the band in 1985 to form Ghost Dance, which included ex-Skeletal Family vocalist Anne-Marie Hurst. They released two albums and embarked on a number of extensive tours enjoying relative success. However, record-company politics and inconsistency in personnel left the outfit reeling and they had disbanded by the end of 1989.
From 1997 to 2005 he worked as a teacher at Paul McCartney's Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts. He subsequently released material as an independent artist through his own website and set up an archive for his previous band, Ghost Dance.
In 2003 Marx released his first solo record, Pretty black dots, in a singer-songwriter style.
In 2007 he released the Nineteen Ninety Five and Nowhere album, with material originally written by him in 1995 for The Sisters of Mercy, at the invitation of Andrew Eldritch.

Every thought we have could burn our bloodline
As I reconnect with hope
I could never trust your secrecy...you're suffering
You only pray your deeds will match your outcome
Forgiving your mistakes
Reflecting truth and look at you, you're failing
A slave defeats his master by a landslide
And the rich succumb to poor
I don't want to burn my only bridge, my only one
Karma works its way into play
Someone hears every word you say
What is done will somehow come back around
And you can spout your drivel to people
I don't mind and I'll be just fine
Moving forward I will not be brought down
Actions tear a hole inside the lifeline
They say a spirit never dies
Could you ever truly change your ways...you're suffering
Brandishing a cross will be your last lie
And it'll lock your open door
One chance to make you see, just one
Karma works its way into play
Someone hears every word you say
What is done will somehow come back around
And you can spout your drivel to people
I don't mind and I'll be just fine
