Tytan are a British rock band that lasted about two years during the early 1980s, founded by former Angel Witch bassist Kev Riddles.
Tytan was formed at the height of the new wave of British heavy metal in the autumn of 1981 by the former Angel Witch rhythm section, bassist Kevin Riddles and drummer Dave Dufort (ex-E. F. Band), Scottish vocalist Norman 'Kal' Swan, and guitarists Steve Gibbs and Glasgow-born Stewartie Adams.
The latter unfortunately had to leave the band and Gary Owens (ex-A II Z, Aurora) had a brief stay before Steve Mann (ex-Liar, Lionheart) joined.
Former Judas Priest and Lionheart drummer Les Binks joined the band just in time for the recording, in place of Dave Dufort.
Steve Mann returned to Lionheart and recorded the 1984 album Hot Tonight with the band before joining the McAuley Schenker Group, Sweet, and German prog rock act Eloy.
Tom Barna's replacement, Tony Coldham, performed his last show with the band on 13 October 2018, as he had decided to concentrate on his other outfit, The Deep.
