Live gig by The Dogs D'Amour, blending roots rock and glam punk, at The Craufurd Arms in Milton Keynes.
The Dogs D'amour play The Craufurd Arms in Milton Keynes on Saturday 6 March. It's a single-band bill, so they're the only name on the poster.
If you're not familiar with them, they're a band that pulls from a few different places at once. They blend Rolling Stones and Faces-style roots rock with Hanoi Rocks-style glam punk, and the whole thing is rooted in American blues. The sound is fronted by Tyla's throaty rasp and slide-guitarist Jo Almeida.
They first showed a strong country & western side on 1989's Errol Flynn, which came out as King Of The Thieves in the US. The band was originally fronted by Ned Christie, but Tyla took over lead vocals when Christie left. The group's most successful line-up — Tyla on vocals and guitar, Bam on drums, Steve James on bass and Jo Dog on guitar — recorded the classic albums The Dynamite Jet Saloon, A Graveyard of Empty Bottles and Errol Flynn/King of the Thieves.
