Lloyiso's "Elephant in the Room", @ The Biscuit Mill.

Addressing the "Elephant in the Room," an intimate four-city tour that holds promise and space for the Lloyiso fandom. For those lucky enough, it offers a chance to discover your favorite artist in a cozy venue setting before we buy that double ticket to his homecoming arena tour.

As delightful as it is to see talent merit and climb up the ladder of stardom, we often reflect back to the days when we were an arm's length away, shaking hands and capturing that awkward selfie moment for social media.

However, without turning back the hands of time, we still long for something with middle ground. You know? "Big production value but small enough to not stand in a queue forever."

Well, the impossible was done... Lloyiso and Stella Artois somehow managed to successfully pull off a big-scale production concert with line arrays, a five-piece band, and impeccable stage lighting at the home of Cape Town's Neighbourgoods Market.

Honestly, you had to be there to know it was possible. Better yet, you had to be present to witness the artistry at work and its seamless effort to connect and inspire an audience on such an intimate level, prompting the crowd to sing along to the already classics "Let Me Love You Now" and "I Hate That I Care."
