Their ears stucked on records from Supertramp or Pink Floyd, the Lloyd brothers go back to the futurs with a powerful and cutting rock with meticulous arrangements. Formed in 2011, they’ve already released two EP’s and two singles. The trio forged itself a place amongst the indie scene, becoming a major act in one of the most iconic parisian venues. With Alexis singing and playing the guitar, Loris on the keyboards and Antoine behind the drums, LLOYD assemble rock fans of all stripes around them, where organic meets synthetic in federating melodies.
