Interview with Waiting for Smith
We had the pleasure of interviewing Waiting For Smith over Zoom video!\xa0
Waiting For Smith is singer/songwriter Harry Lloyd. Formerly a ski instructor in the French Alps, Lloyd broke his back in two places during avalanche training. Wondering whether he\u2019d survive in the helicopter on the way to the hospital, he had an epiphany that if he was ok, he should dedicate his life to music. After spending a year in bed recuperating and learning to play guitar, he formed Waiting For Smith, named after endlessly waiting for his original drummer Smith to show up.
Following the release of the effervescent \u201cLong Life\u201d, Waiting For Smith unveils \u201cLines of Love\u201d, emphasising that in times of doubt, often all we need is a compassionate ear. "It\u2019s often difficult to over speculate, one minute you\u2019re up and then you\u2019re down and that\u2019s your day."
LINES OF LOVE
"For me, that\u2019s life \u2013 or my life for sure \u2013 in a tiny lyrical nutshell. It sways back and forth between unbridled joy and moments of great despair. But I guess I\u2019d be a lousy songwriter if I didn\u2019t feel anything\u2026" \u2028
WFS has seen success garnering over 413K streams on Spotify and landing radio play on over 180 stations around the world, including Huw Stephens on Radio 1, Jo Whiley on Radio 2, 6 Music and Flux Fm. With features in British GQ and Holland\u2019s JFK Magazine.
"With music, I\u2019m always trying to cheer myself up first - It\u2019s like free therapy for me. And then ultimately others, I really enjoy making people feel better. That\u2019s the ultimate aim."
