Born Lloyd Tyrell, Lloyd Charmers' career spans some of the most fertile periods of Jamaica's musical history. From the late 50s Jamaican shuffle R&B and the subsequent ska boom, to the rocksteady and roots reggae of the late '60s and early '70s, Charmers made valuable contributions as a vocalist, session musician and producer. Charmers first broke into the Kingston music scene as a member of the singing duo the Charmers along with vocalist Roy Willis. After scoring a few hits in the late '50s, the group caught the attention of rising producer and future reggae legend Clement "Coxsone" Dodd. Later, having picked up valuable studio experience Charmers launched his own Splash label in the early '70s (he would also release material on the Soul Beat and Wild Flower labels).
