Since starting comedy in 2009, Lloyd has quickly established himself as one of the most natural, brightest and original comedians on the circuit, and in 2011 was selected to perform as part of the prestigious Edinburgh package show, Big Value Comedy Showcase.
Grimsby-born Lloyd now regularly performs at some of the largest clubs in the UK, including Just The Tonic, Downstairs at the Kings Head, BBC Comedy Presents, Knock2Bag, CKP, Amused Moose, Fluid Thinking, Funhouse Comedy, Crack Comedy, Monkey Business, HaHa Comedy, Funny Bones & SO Comedy. Lloyd is also a very strong and enthusiastic compere and as a result is resident MC at a number of comedy clubs in London and the south of England.
Aside from comedy, Lloyd is also a professional choral singer and can be heard performing with the choirs of Westminster Abbey, St George's Chapel - Windsor Castle and various other London groups.
