Dylan Lloyd

Captivating.

Full-on fainting. Swooning.

Leaning on your shoulder and contemplating the full spectrum of the future together.

From the intense R&B groove of "All I Wanna Do" to the cool vibe of "Visible," Dylan Lloyd brings out every ounce of feeling. Lloyd gives voice to those of us who are unable to express our longing for that special one. The hopeful crooner behind the lines of "Be My Girl" knows she might think he's a stalker and tells her it's not anything creepy. He goes on to tell her what he'd give her if he were as rich as "Bill Gates."

He misses friends and lost loves. He struggles with the why of it. Thankful for the remembered moments, he sorrows for the lost opportunity to say goodbye.

Listening to Lloyd's playing is a thrill. Close your eyes. See the music. The mobility of the bass. The whispers of the percussion. The keyboard speaking in a warm- hearted counterpoint to his expressive vocals. Sweet, bluesy melodies are shared among the vocals, guitar, and keyboard.

"I'm not saying that I'm okay. You'd know that I'd be lying....Move on...." Like Lloyd, we press on. We know that life moves on and us with it. We know that risking all with that one special person is the very essence of living. In the moment when we expose our hearts to the harsh light of day, we live more intensely than at any other moment. And so with Lloyd, we say, "I'll be alright." And so will we be.
