Arden Lloyd blends aspects of folk, indie rock, and jazz with emotionally poignant lyrics to create music that pulls you in and doesn’t let you go. Her voice is at the heart of her performances, inducing frisson in audiences everywhere. She’s played extensively in Boston and NYC, as well as her hometown in Western, MA – everywhere from cozy basement house shows to headlining events. In 2020, she won the National YoungArts Competition for Voice: Singer-Songwriter, and was named a 2021 U.S. Presidential Scholar in the Arts, one of 20 in the nation.

She released her debut EP of folk-centric songs, This Moment, in 2021. All of the songs were recorded in one take with vocals and guitar/piano recorded simultaneously, presented how they were written and performed in her childhood home. The six songs encourage you to cherish each moment and allow your own stories to unfold.

Her newest release, Untitled / Westward, is an intimate portrait of love, loneliness, and longing, and solidifies Arden’s ability to craft evocative narratives that resonate universally. With lilting guitars, emotive vocals, and stellar songwriting, it captures listeners’ hearts and offers warmth.
