Hard rock kit Tyketto was formed by early D.O.A. frontman Danny Vaughn in 1989 undermentioned the dissolving of his previous band, Waysted. Guitarist Brooke St. James, bassist Jimi Kennedy, and drummer Michael Clayton rounded extinct the original lineup, which took its name from a graffito tag scrawled across a Brooklyn wall. Tyketto's Richie Zito-produced debut, Don't Come Easy, appeared on Geffen in 1991, promoted with a U.K. turn in financial backing of White Lion -- in mid-tour Kennedy left wing the lineup, however, with White Lion bassist James LoMenzo complemental the dates. Bassist Jaimie Scott was named Kennedy's full-time successor in time to record Strength in Numbers -- bring forward copies of the album were already in the mail service when Geffen out of the blue dropped the group in 1992, and the ruined product did non appear stateside until deuce long time later, when it was released by CMC. Vaughn then left Tyketto to guardianship for his ghastly married woman, and early Tall Stories vocaliser Steve Augeri stepped in for the group's third LP, 1995's Shine. Tyketto disbanded soon after, although in 2000 Vaughn, Scott, and Clayton reunited in a new grouping, named merely Vaughn, that besides featured guitar player P.J. Zitarosa and keyboardist Kyle Cummings. The classical Tyketto lineup of Vaughn, St. James, Kennedy, and Clayton besides mounted a European duty tour in late 2003.
