<div>I've organized this fundraiser for <strong>Richard Lloyd</strong>, my friend and  bandmate in the Richard Lloyd Group. For those who don’t know him, Richard is a founding member and guitarist of <strong>Television</strong>, the legendary New York band whose album <strong>Marquee Moon</strong> became one of the most influential records in rock history. In March 2026, Richard was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma, a serious form of bile duct cancer. He has tumors in his liver, including one located dangerously close to a major blood vessel. Because of its location, doctors cannot safely operate to remove it at this time. Since his diagnosis, Richard has been through an extraordinary amount. He has been in the ICU seven times, dealing with serious complications including sepsis twice, as well as complications involving his liver and kidneys. And through all of this, he’s fighting.

</div>
<div>Richard is currently unable to tour. For a working musician, that’s devastating—not only because performing is what he loves, but because touring is his primary source of income. Richard and his wife, <strong>Sheila</strong>, are now facing serious financial pressure. Sheila is Richard’s full-time caregiver and is unable to work because Richard needs constant support. There have also been unresolved royalty issues going back roughly two years, creating another significant financial strain at an already incredibly difficult time. And, like most working musicians, Richard is being overwhelmed by crushing medical expenses and the ongoing costs of simply getting through each month while he is unable to work. This fundraiser will help Richard and Sheila with medical expenses, monthly living expenses, and the many other costs that come with Richard being unable to work and Sheila being a full-time caregiver.
</div>

</div>
<div>Richard has spent decades giving his music to other people. Now it’s our turn to give something back to him. If Richard’s music has meant something to you—if you’ve listened to <strong>Marquee Moon</strong>, seen <strong>Television</strong> perform, followed Richard’s career, or simply know and love him as a person—please consider donating. And if you aren’t able to donate, please share this fundraiser. Sharing it may be just as important as giving. I’ve been lucky enough to stand beside Richard on stage for the past four years. Right now, I’d like to stand beside him in a different way. Let’s help Richard and Sheila get through this.
</div>

</div>
<div><strong>From Richard:</strong> “I am usually a pretty upbeat person and I am taking this in stride, but it has become very difficult on our own and financially we are strapped. That’s why I’m asking for your help. If you can see your way clear to make a donation please do that. Otherwise, please pass it around to your friends that might help and people that know me.”

<div>Thank you,
