Born in Memphis in 1938, Lloyd began playing saxophone at the age of nine and quickly became a child prodigy. Among his early mentors was Phineas Newborn, and he was classmates at Manassas High with George Coleman, Booker Little, Harold Mabern, and Frank Strozier, who would all go on to become famous professional musicians. As a teenager, Lloyd not only learned from great Memphis musicians, but also played professionally as a sideman with Bobby Blue Bland, B.B. King, Johnny Ace, and Howlin? Wolf. Lloyd left Memphis in the late 1950s, and since the 1960s, he has been one of the most respected jazz musicians in the world.
In April 2012, Lloyd made his first appearance in Memphis since 1964 by performing at Rhodes. He also was honored with a note on the Beale Street Brass Note Walk of Fame
Tickets are $50 for priority seating, $35 for general admission, and can be purchased here. The event is free to Rhodes and Stax Academy students.
