About Me

K.LLOYD has been plying dirty acoustic blues for over 9 years now while touring various rehab & mental institutions. In 1998, he was thrown from a Ford van carrying the infamous band Buzzov-en. They were en route to Cape Fear, N.C. on I-77 and when swerving to keep from hitting a possum, Kirk was thrown from the van onto the shoulder and ended up in a ditch near the Queen City - Charlotte, where he has wandered the streets searching for sanity and a new found purpose. Through his ventures, these various folkish tunes were written to help ease the pain and emptiness of his everyday life.
Finally...earlier this year, with incentive from long time friends T-Roy Medlin and Jimmy Bower, K.LLOYD ventured to Norfolk, VA & New Orleans, LA to begin recording these songs for an upcoming release on Neurot Recordings. His purpose with music has been renewed and recreated in Blues/Acoustic music which is far from sounding like his earlier Buzzov-en days.
Touring will be sparse and these recordings may not see the light until later in 2008 but regardless, K.LLOYD is back.......K-LLOYD SHIRTS AVAILABLE NOW AT SHIRTSANDDESTROY.COMSHIRTSANDDESTROY.COM ALSO NOW HAS OFFICIAL BUZZOV-EN MERCH!!!
