Loving wife & mother moonlighting as a sometimes athlete, wannabe chef, hack brewer, guitar babe-in-the-woods, and Jedi Master.

More than a decade touring the U.S., Heather Aubrey Lloyd has brought her lush, passionate voice to every type of venue, from folk festivals and bars to bait shops and clothing-optional resorts. A recovering reporter, her songs drift from journalistic to deeply personal, each narrative offered up in her distinctive alto and layered over finger-picked guitar. Her sets are rounded out with a few pieces on ukulele and djembe, the instrument that has earned her primal reputation as co-front for the Baltimore-based band ilyAIMY. Solo and with the band, Heather wields her wit and warmth from the stage to build a relationship with every audience.  Heather set to work on "A Message in the Mess," the solo record that ushered in years of awards since its 2017 release: Mid-Atlantic Song Contest Director's Award for Album of the Year, Telluride Troubador Top 4, Most-Wanted Artist at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, National Women's Music Festival Emerging Artist, No Depression/FreshGrass Songwriter Award Finalist, and Grand Prize Winner of the 2019 Bernard Ebb Songwriting Award. New music coming in 2020!
 
"Voices this rich and emotionally hard-hitting - equal parts velvet darkness, barely contained heartbreak, and hard-won, unstoppable joy - don't come around often. Sing me the phone book, Heather Lloyd - I'll ask for an encore." 

"Lloyd's voice has a powerful emotional and technical range, using everything from a delicate whisper to a bluesy growl to breathe life into the folk narratives." - Michael Duck, The Morning Call

"A pint-sized powerhouse of a singer." - The Washington Times

Interactive Audio Specialist, producer of absurdly high energy tracks.

Zzonik, alternately known as Tortusoid or Moon Roach, has no hair and an ear for really weird sounding tunes. Mixing since October 2006, Zzonik's musical background consists of singing in a barbershop quartet and air-guitaring the bass part in Bela Fleck's Sinister Minister. Raised in Yellow Springs, Ohio, hippie oasis in a sea of rednecks, Zonker's sense of isolation and alienation expressed itself in a taste for Dirty Rotten Imbeciles and Suicidal Tendencies, which evolved later into a fascination with industrial sounds like Skinny Puppy and Art of Noise-tinged electronica.

Disappearing from the face of the earth for a period of ten years after he started graduate school, had two kids, and changed jobs three times in two years, he came up for air in 2005 when by pure chance he heard Sasha's Rabbitweed on rhapsody's internet radio and wondered, where the hell can I hear more of that? Has been driving family crazy with obsession with electronic music (or as he calls it, "music that doesn't suck") ever since.
