Alex Lloyd Really Pushed By Producer Rick Parashar

Alex Lloyd spoke with Australia’s Time Off magazine about recording his fourth album at Seattle’s London Bridge Studios, where he took 16 songs to producer Rick Parashar (Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains), whose hands-on contribution impressed him. “He really pushed me, probably a little bit more than I would have pushed myself,” Lloyd said, “so I felt like I was challenged musically by him to do the best I could do. I wanted to concentrate on being the songwriter and the singer and not so much think about the sonics of the album. I just wanted that side of things to be out of my mind so I could make sure the songs were getting the attention they deserved.” The full story at TimeOff.com.au has since been removed.
