With 9 albums, a swag of accolades to his name and over 25 years performing, writing and recording, Lloyd Spiegel has certainly squeezed more into 36 years than many do in a lifetime. It’s that experience and presence well beyond his years that has seen him become one of this country’s leading blues artists and most respected guitarists. His incredible command of the guitar, powerful voice and high energy performance captivates any audience.
While fans and critics focus on his guitar skills, Lloyd has come of age as a composer and lyricist. His 2005 release, ‘Tall Stories’ was quickly recognised as a breakthrough recording and proves him to be an integral part of Australia’s ever-changing blues music style. The recent release, ‘Double Live Set’ is a live celebration of 25 years on stage and is Lloyd’s most celebrated album to date, winning 4 Australian Blues Music Awards and 3 Victorian Blues Awards.
