MAT LLOYD

Last week I was interviewed on Soho Radio.  With hosts Ben Ramble and Baby Sol, we discussed; poetry, skateboarding, positivity, the origins of my latest collection 'The Cracks and Curbs EP' and I read a piece live on air.  Thanks to everyone that tuned in and all those who got in touch after the show.  Much appreciated.

If you missed it, you can listen again below.  The whole show is great but if you want to skip forward to my interview it's from the 1:15:40 mark.



Many thanks to Ben Ramble, Baby Sol and the whole team at Soho Radio!

'The Cracks And Curbs EP' sold out earlier this year and I hinted that a second print might be in the works.  Massive thanks to everyone that contacted me direct and due to this support the second print was ordered.  Since then I've been overwhelmed by the continued support for the collection, thank you so much!

It's still £4 and comes with free worldwide postage and packing.  The second print is limited so if you waited too long and missed the first print, don't make that mistake again (click the Buy Now button below)

THE CRACKS AND CURBS EP

My brand new second collection of poetry!

From the introduction by Philip Levine:

"Mat had agreed to come and was driving over 8 hours from London to get to us. Anxiety hit me hard. Was Mat gonna get pissed with me? A talented individual not getting a platform he deserved and ringing me earlier from the car enthused by the thought of performing at the festival. He bound in and even though realising the situation wasn’t quite what it should have been, without hesitation grabbed a chair, dropped the mic, and just spoke out loud, captivating everyone in the room with his words."

At the end of last year I sat down with comedian Mike Dryburgh to record an episode for his new podcast 'Mix Tapes with Mike'. Well it's finally out and I have the honour of being on episode 4!

"Mixtapes with Mike is the podcast for music fans, where stand up comedian  Michael Dryburgh invites a different guest each episode to create a mixtape of ten of their favourite songs and give the listener a bit of background on their relationship to each track. And if you like the sound of the music in conversation you can find links to listen to the mixtape in full via Apple Music & Spotify."

It was difficult to nail down just ten tunes but I managed to create a shortlist and even found a loophole in his rule of 'no artists can be featured twice'.  My list includes Ice-T, BB King, Gil Scott Heron and Ghost Poet among many others featured and discussed.  Find the podcast on iTunes.
