Established in 2015, Natty Gray is a founder and co-director of the Tulsa, OK based 501c3 nonprofit Cult Love [Sound Tapes], a syndicate “committed to the platforming, preservation, and proliferation of underground communities and culture”. Essentially acting as a fluid art collective and cassette label, Cult Love’s practice is as broad as its founder’s, spanning sound, video, and photography, fashion, physical format media, immersive installations, and events, archiving, curation, written word, and more. A staple of the DIY movements of the Midwest and Midsouth, Cult Love has been an independent backbone of the underground Tulsa art and music scene since its inception, influencing and helping shape the region’s greater cultural, social, and artistic trends while advocating for underrepresented creative communities.
