Lloyd Yates

About Me

Lloyd Yates is is an extraordinary singer/songwriter from Jersey in the Channel Islands. His unique sound is compared to combination's of various well known artists, but rarely pinned down. Beautifully crafted songs sung with heart and meaning are honed from his home in St Ouen and expanded upon by the rest of the band in the perfect setting of Cowshed Acoustics.There are some demo's and a couple of live takes here now, Lloyd is working on new and old songs alike and we hope to have some more available here soon.If you have the chance to hear lloyd and the band play live - don't miss it!Also check out Lloyds amazing vocal on Third Floor Tigers' "Morning Sun" here - www.myspace.com/thirdfloortiger.
