Kutless is an American Christian rock band from Portland, Oregon, formed in 1999. It is one of the most influential acts in the modern Christian music scene and has sold over three million albums worldwide.

“Kutless” refers to the Bible verse Romans 6:23. The band interprets this to mean that Jesus took upon himself the “wounds” (English: cuts) of humanity on the cross, thereby leaving us “wound-free” (cutless).

Their sound ranges from hard rock and alternative rock to classic worship.

In 2026, they will be performing at Loud and Proud for the third time, making them an integral part of the Loud and Proud family.
