Life and career


Shuman graduated Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, California and attended Campbell Hall High School in North Hollywood, California, Portola Middle School in Tarzana, California, and Lanai Road Elementary School in Encino, California.

Shuman co-founded, co-fronted, and played bass for Jubilee until late 2008, and is the bassist of Wires On Fire, both on Buddyhead Records. He joined Queens of the Stone Age in 2007 before the release of Era Vulgaris, replacing Alain Johannes, who chose to focus on other musical projects.[1]

In 2013, Queens of the Stone Age released ...Like Clockwork, their first full album since Shuman joined the band. On the album, Shuman provides vocals and plays bass, percussion, guitar, twelve-string guitar, and Mellotron. The album was the first Queens of the Stone Age album to reach number one on the Billboard 200. It also reached number two on the UK Albums Chart and was nominated for three Grammy Awards, including Best Rock Album.

Shuman contributed to the soundtrack of the video game Grand Theft Auto V in 2013, working alongside other musicians on the game's score. He also created the soundtrack for the 2017 drama film Feed.

In 2022, Shuman announced a new solo project under the name GLU. He has since released two singles under GLU, "Cold Sweat" and "My Demons" featuring Sara Barthel of the band Phantogram.
