At just 17, Josh Millard-Lloyd fronts rock and pop outfit 'The Lost' who will be playing the 02 Academy3 on Saturday night (October 18), then headlining at the Rainbow, Digbeth the following Wednesday.

When he was eight years old, Josh became a child actor, appearing in films including Ray and Liz and Nativity Rocks with Craig Revel Horwood, Celia Imrie and Ruth Jones.

He also has a burgeoning broadcasting career with Black Country Radio (BCR) and Black Country Xtra after going in for work experience and following it up with an interview about his band before becoming a fully fledged presenter.

His radio work has led him to become part of the Buskin' for Charity group along with fellow presenter and poet Billy Spakemon who he says has 'become a mentor' to him - the pair teamed up for a charity football match at Tividale FC last year.
