Tel Aviv, Israel

June 18, 1993

Dennis Lloyd is the alias of Nir Tibor, a heartfelt singer and frank lyricist, as well as a trumpeter and producer, with a dusky hybrid sound that organically incorporates classic soul influences. The Tel Aviv, Israel native debuted in 2015 with "Playa (Say That)," after which he spent a year based in Bangkok, Thailand, where he wrote and recorded dozens of new songs. A handful of additional singles and accompanying videos were released across 2016 and early 2017. The most successful of the bunch was "Nevermind," a ballad quickly streamed well over a million times and added to playlists of radio stations in Lloyd's home country. All the while, Lloyd was active as a performer in small venues and at festivals. Following a two-year gap, the singer returned in early 2019 with the EP Exident. The single, "Wild West," appeared later that year. ~ Andy Kellman
