Ahead of the unique performance, Lloyd says: “I’m excited to still be finding new methods, new perspectives, new sounds. The album may be nearing commercial death, but my career has been in that state for almost 30 years and here we are, still, and I still want to make albums. I still want to be heard. I’m very much looking forward to being on stage with Neil, and Blair in October. We have no intention of producing a retro show.”

Launching the UK tour of their latest album, In Between Thoughts… A New World, Grammy-winning innovators Rodrigo Y Gabriela bring the fresh, sweeping sounds of their new record to Albert Hall with an inventive set packed with avant-garde electronic and orchestral inflections.
