There’s little online about Johnny Lloyd’s solo project at this point, with only a couple of songs to his name online, but if the understated, scratchy sound of Pilgrims and Dead Beat is the direction he’s taking then we don;t need any more.

Pilgrims is scratchy blues-pop, with a groove that softly and sweetly lulls it’s way into your mind, while Dead Beat is more retrained, melancholic and raw with with a bleak chorus of “I’ve got a bullet from your gun”.

There maybe laughter, but feels like the laughter of lost memories and a broken soul.
