The Dogs D'Amour are a rock and roll band with a distinct blend of punk, glam, and blues, known for their poetic lyrics and raucous live performances. Formed in London, England, in 1983 by charismatic lead vocalist and guitarist Tyla, the band gained a cult following across the UK for their ragged, romantic image and their rootsy, rolling rock imbued with a sense of decadent outlaw spirit. Taking cues from the likes of The Rolling Stones, The Faces, and Johnny Thunders' Heartbreakers, The Dogs D'Amour crafted an aesthetic all their own, reflected in their striking album artwork and Tyla's distinctive voice.
Throughout the late 1980s and early 1990s, the band carved out a niche in the UK's rock scene with albums such as "In The Dynamite Jet Saloon," "Errol Flynn," and "More Unchartered Heights Of Disgrace," all of which demonstrated their knack for fusing gritty rock with heartfelt, almost poetic lyricism. Their somewhat turbulent history includes several break-ups and line-up changes, with Tyla being the consistent heart and soul of the operation. The Dogs D'Amour's latest works, including "Swingin’ The Bottles: The BBC Radio Sessions," capture the band's enduring, freewheeling spirit and are testament to their resilience in the ever-shifting terrain of rock music. Despite never achieving massive mainstream success, The Dogs D'Amour have continued to maintain a loyal fanbase and influence new generations of musicians with their unique blend of rock 'n' roll.
