Nick followed in his father’s footsteps, albeit in a different field, by writing the music for a number of short films, most notably for the drama “The Last Bus” in 2021.

The legacy of his family was something he insisted on maintaining. When it came time to release his song for the “Love, Lies, and Records” series, Nick acknowledged the pressures that came with the world’s focus on him, according to a 2011 interview with The Telegraph. He told the newspaper, “I left out the Lloyd bit for a while to see how people would react. After hearing something on the radio, I realized I wasn’t entirely stupid. Hold on; if others are willing to work with me without the surname, perhaps I should proceed, I thought.
