Tyketto is an American hard rock band based in New York City. It was formed in 1987 by former Waysted vocalist Danny Vaughn alongside guitarist Brooke St. James, bassist Jimi Kennedy, and drummer Michael Clayton.
== History == The band's name Tyketto was originally spotted by the members as graffiti on a wall in Brooklyn. By 1989, the band had signed to Geffen Records and released their debut album ''Don't Come Easy'', which included the single "Forever Young". The rise of the grunge sound in 1991 saw Tyketto's hopes of a big breakthrough begin to recede. Kennedy left the band and was replaced by Jaimie Scott. Their second album was rejected by Geffen and finally emerged in 1994 under the title Strength in Numbers on CMC International in the U.S. and Music for Nations elsewhere in the world.
