In the spaces when he's not on stage with his fellow Fisherman's Friends, 'Loveridge' is the solo project of guitarist and singer-songwriter Toby Lobb.

The name itself is Toby's middle name, inherited from his great grandfather Loveridge Lobb who was renowned in Padstow, and much further afield, for his love of music and performance.

After years of wanting to get thoughts from pen and paper, to an old guitar and then out into the big wide world, Toby sat down, recorded a few songs in a small room and 'Loveridge was born.

Switching between folk-inspired tales of the sea & his beloved Cornwall as well as more contemporary tunes about love, life, loss & redemption, there is always a common theme running through each song.

This is honest music about life as we all know it as well as memories of lives gone by. You win some, you lose some and now, in Toby's case, you occasionally write a song or two about it.

Following on from his debut EP 'Safe Haven', a new album entitled 'As the Crow Flies' sees Loveridge deliver 10 folk-infused tracks looking back at Cornwall of old, casting off to adventure, yearning to return to the safety of home and even throwing in a vengeful mermaid!

If you're after an acoustic artist to provide you with heartfelt original songs, look no further than 'Loveridge'. Enjoy the site and the music.....
