Tyketto

Book tickets for Tyketto at J1 at Cambridge Junction. Hard rocking songsmiths, TYKETTO, enter 2026 with the release of their 6th studio album, Closer To The Sun, through Silver Lining Music on March 20th 2026, and with it, unleash some of their best, supremely crafted rock anthems celebrating the return of this criminally underrated quintet originally founded in New York. Plus support from Warrior Soul and Collateral [embed]https://youtu.be/xN9V8M0GDgU[/embed] The first video and single taken from Closer To The Sun, ‘Higher Than High' is a burst of swing and swagger that perfectly captures Tyketto’s deep appreciation for the emancipation that music can bring. That spirit rings out unmistakably as vocalist and founding member Danny Vaughn roars: “In the space you can learn to heal/There is music that helps you feel/Higher than high”.  Listen to it right here. “Higher Than High is, in my estimation, classic Tyketto, where difficulties in life are seen and named but hope and, more importantly, music, is the thing that gets us through,” comments Danny Vaughn. “It's the first single from our new album which we think is going to be a real favorite with the fans. The song and the album say ‘play me loudly and take me for a drive.’”  Throughout Closer To The Sun, Tyketto speak to the listener about true life loves, losses and pleasures.

Whereas their fifth album ‘Collaborations: Volume One featured a range of World Music legends including Grammy-winning Beninese vocalist Angélique Kidjo and godfather of Ethiopian jazz Mulatu Astatke, ‘Volume Two’ sees HCB focus on songs and singers, alongside a sprinkling of instrumentals featuring harp, guitar, cello, and even conch shells.
