ROCK BAND

lloyddoblerThe Lloyd Dobler Effect (LDE) has been around for more than 8 years, having toured over forty states and thirteen countries. The band has an impressive list of accomplishments including headlining multiple international Armed Forces Entertainment tours.

The name for the group comes from the main character in the 1989 movie “Say Anything” starring John Cusack, where Lloyd Dobler held a large boombox over his head outside of his girlfriend’s window and blasted “In Your Eyes” to prove how much he loved her. The LDE name was primarily adopted because the band thought it sounded cool.

LDE has gained a stellar reputation on the national college circuit and live worldwide music scene as the next great band to watch. They have performed on the same bill with such notable artists as Jane’s Addiction, Eminem, The Strokes, The Goo Goo Dolls, Good Charlotte, The Roots, Jack Johnson, and 3rd Eye Blind, to name a few.

LDE’s multi-layered and upbeat music showcases their universal appeal to both modern rock lovers and culturally diverse audiences. The new single (on the Imagen Records label) “Meet Me In London”, which is the title cut for the upcoming album, highlights the group’s debut onto the mainstream music scene. The full CD will be available in early 2010.
