Millionairhead is the first album by the band Cut_ which was led by Ray Wilson. This was the first project by Ray Wilson following his time with Genesis and their album "Calling All Stations". This was also the first release by Ray Wilson where he took on the majority of the songwriting duties. He has stated that this album sounds similar to the way the next Genesis album might have sounded had the band continued with him.

The band and album featured Ray on vocals along with his brother Steve Wilson on guitar. The drums were handled by Nir Zidkyahu who worked with Ray while in Genesis. The band only recorded and released this one album. Ray would go on to record his own solo albums as well as with the reformed version of Stiltskin.

A reworked version of "Another Day" would be recorded by Ray for his solo album Change in 2003. Some of the songs on this album are frequently played live by Ray Wilson at his solo concerts. Live versions of "Another Day", "Sarah", and "Gypsy" can be found on Ray Wilson Live from 2004 and live versions of "Another Day", "Sarah", and "Ghost" can be found on An Audience and Ray Wilson from 2006.

In October 2007, the album is re-released worldwide with three bonus tracks which were previously released b-sides.
