Elusive award winning performance poet Mat Lloyd is an angry middle finger to poetry purists, using a variety of mediums including spoken word performances, videos, the written word, and the odd music collaboration to quickly evaporate any preconceptions an audience may have about his craft! Among his many achievements he has performed along side artists such as Scroobius Pip, TV Smith, Laura Marling, 9 Ton Peanut Smugglers, Jude Simpson, Dockers MC, Luke Wright and Heala Selecta. He has also performed at Londons prestigious Jazz Café, Camp Bestival and the Edinburgh Fringe. His first official collection Demo Tape was released in 2009. Whilst you will see him performing along side other Lazy Gramophone family members, he is also a member of the Raison Dêtre Collective and RRRANTS. He is currently team manager for Discipline Skateboards and resides somewhere in the south
