Hadley Lloyd is a versatile drummer and dynamic presence in the New England music scene. Since relocating to Boston in 2018, Hadley has become a sought-after collaborator, performing and recording across a wide spectrum of styles including funk, fusion, blues, jazz, folk, and Americana.

With deep roots in jazz and improvisational music, Hadley brings a keen ear for melodic nuance and rhythmic intricacies, always balanced by a strong commitment to groove. Whether locking into psych-funk pockets with The Oddlot, shaping moody textures with jazz-noire Savoir Faire, or sitting in with the high energy blues duo Troy Mercy, Hadley’s playing is musical, responsive, and distinctly personal.

As a performer, Hadley has shared stages with acts like Canyon Lights, GA-20, DeVotchKa, and The Blues Express, and has appeared at notable venues and festivals such as The Sinclair, Tupelo Music Hall, NHBank Pavilion (Hazy Little Stage) appearing for Luke Bryan, and the White Mountain Boogie and Blues Festival. In 2024, Hadley and Troy Mercy’s group won the Boston Blues Society's Best Blues Duo, earning a spot in the International Blues Challenge in Memphis.

In the studio, Hadley recently teamed up with renowned engineer Rob Jaczko at Berklee College of Music to track The Oddlot’s soon to be released debut EP, blending spontaneity with production-level precision.
