Havana 3am

Havana 3am was a British-American rock supergroup formed in 1986 by singer/guitarist Nigel Dixon (previously of the band Whirlwind), guitarist Gary Myrick, and bassist Paul Simonon (previously of the Clash).[1] The band also included Travis Williams, a drummer whom they later found by a newspaper announcement. The band's name was taken from the title of a 1956 album by Pérez Prado. Havana 3am's music incorporated elements of rockabilly, Latin and reggae influences.

The band eventually signed a worldwide record deal with I.R.S. Records, then travelled to Japan to record with audio engineer Masahiko Yamazaki at a studio in Tokyo. Their self-titled album, released in 1991, received mixed reviews and contained the single "Reach the Rock", which was a minor radio hit in certain markets.[2][3]

Following Dixon's death in April 1993, Simonon left the group and continued his career in visual art. Myrick, now both lead vocalist and sole guitarist, assembled a new line-up with Jamie Chez (formerly of Ta Mara and the Seen) and Tom Felicetta. The trio, calling themselves Gary Myrick & Havana 3am, released one more album in 1996, but it was less successful and they broke up shortly thereafter.
