Lloyd Nicks Slates Debut Album 'Paper-Maché'

Curb Records artist Lloyd Nicks will release his debut album, Paper-Maché , on Mar.…

Paper-Maché pieces together a life that’s known abuse, abandonment and grief, but also a transformed heart that’s experienced the love of Jesus. Nicks turns the process of becoming into a work of art on Paper-Maché, and the 12-track debut reveals an emotional storyteller and a devoted father who’s trying to outrun generations worth of pain for the sake of his children. His introductory set features an inviting array of R&B, soul, pop, Gospel and worship, as well as a personal version of his Grammy-winning CeCe Winans ’ cut, “That’s My King.”

Offering his heart up as a blank canvas, Nicks welcomes divine creativity on the title track. While he might not be able to see the full picture yet, piece by piece, he knows his purpose is taking shape, and claims our lives, while unfinished, remain a work of art as we’re molded into who we’re meant to be. The colorful, pulsating anthem, which he wrote with Micah Kuiper and Taylor Agan , is for those, like Nicks, in the middle of their becoming. “Paper-Maché” is the fourth song to preview the upcoming full-length project, following open-hearted selection “We Won’t,” current radio single “A Little More,” and his emotional ode to fatherhood, “Heal For You.”

“Just like paper-maché, every piece of me is being carefully molded," says Nicks. "Each experience, each lesson, a new layer added by the Master Artist. This journey of becoming is sacred, and it’s leading to something truly profound. This isn’t just an album; it’s a testament to His artistry.”

Already a Grammy winner, three-time GMA Dove Award nominee, and a Billboard Music Award winner, Nicks signed a recording contract with Curb in 2025. His award-winning hit, Winans’ “That’s My King,” remained at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Gospel Songs chart for an impressive 49 weeks.
