Stereo Embers The Podcast 0029: Dane Lloyd (Into The Ark)

“Dane Lloyd Came Home From Tunisia And Got A Phone Call From Sony”

After a six month sojourn to North Africa where he and his Into The Ark bandmate Taylor Marshall Jones were playing holiday resorts, the duo came home to find the EP they recorded before they left had garnered some hefty interest from several labels. Their soulful harmonies and rootsy grooves not only landed them a final appearance on “The Voice” UK, it endeared them to millions of new fans. One of those fans was fellow Welshman Tom Jones, who decided to take them out on the road to open his U.S. tour. Lloyd talks to Alex about busking in the red light district of Sydney, the worries he had about performing on “The Voice” and about that time the Manic Street Preachers visited his school.
