Alex Lloyd

Celebrating 25 Years of Watching Angels Mend

Twenty-five years on, Watching Angels Mend still feels like a record that found people when they needed it most — honest, melodic, and quietly fearless. Released at the turn of the century, it became a defining chapter in Alex Lloyd’s story: songs that travelled far beyond their original rooms, soundchecks, and late-night scribbles, and into the lives of strangers who somehow knew every word.

Watching Angels Mend produced a remarkable run of singles, with “Amazing,” “Green,” and “Everybody’s Laughing” all reaching the Australian Top 40. “Amazing” would go on to become one of the most enduring Australian songs of its era, winning four ARIA Awards including Song of the Year, and earning a permanent place in the cultural landscape through its deep connection with listeners across generations.

Over recent years, Alex Lloyd has evolved into arguably one of Australia’s most compelling live vocalists. There is a depth and control to his singing now that feels both effortless and hard-won — a voice shaped by experience, capable of moving from restraint to full emotional release. Each performance is soulful, grounded, and cathartic, capturing audiences with a presence that is both intimate and commanding.

With special guest Hamish Anderson.
