Tymon violin Graffitti

Tymon Dogg is a multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter with a unique style (and broad range of global influences) which generally defies description… some attempts have included  ‘turbo-futurist’ (Joe Strummer), ‘alt-folk legend’, ‘King of Gypsy Punk’, and…’a demented elf’. As well as pursuing his solo career, he has worked with a wide variety of  musicians from The Clash to Flamenco superstar, the late Enrique Morente. Tymon was a member of Joe Strummer’s Mescaleros until Joe’s untimely death in 2002. More recently he has been working with Granada-based Tymon Dogg & The Dacoits.

In 2022 ‘Tiny Global’ label contracted Tymon to re-release all his back catalogue and to release all his un-released and new material. This got off to a flying start in summer 2023 with the re-release of ‘Battle of Wills’.

In 2023 Tymon Dogg & The Dacoits  finished recording their first album, ‘The Granada Sessions’, due for release on Tiny Global in Spring 2024. The Dacoits are: Antonio Arias, Juan Codorniu and JJ Machuca (all from Lagartija Nick) and Richard Dudanski (PiL, The 101ers).

  1. Hello! Weird question for you… will you /do you sell autographed photos of yourself? My so (15) is so inspired by you. He plays guitar, banjo and currently learning violin. .. (he wants an electric. . But wants to wait till hes learned 5 of your songs ) hes very familiar with your career as I have been a Clash collector since way before he was born ( the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame borrowed 56 items from my collection for their display when the Clash we inducted.) You truly are inspiring my son and something from you would be most grand ! Thank you for all you do ! We hear you !

  2. Well Hi, I am David and stumbled on the web site whilst YouTube memory lane surfs! Used to often play same evening as Tymon at Half moon Putney in around 76/77 when I was member of Acrobat the Friday residents. Still have a copy of his self recoded album he gave me and also still love the songs and energy. Like Tymon I have continued to play and gig down the years and so glad to see and hear he is still enjoying the music. i now live in Cornwall and spend much of my time out in the many venues and recording in my home studio living the Kernow dream I guess. Have fun and keep the music alive in your all Tymon.
