Cannons - BottleRock AfterDark

at August Hall (8pm)
CANNONS alternate between flashes of gauzy introspection, glitter-drenched dancefloor ecstasy, and gritty sensuality. The Los Angeles trio--Michelle Joy [vocals], Ryan Clapham [lead guitar], and Paul Davis [drums keys]--elevate alternative / electro-pop to a neon stratosphere with nocturnal production and a visual sensibility equally suited to Studio 54 or summer festival season. Thus far, the band has honed this signature style over the course of three albums, namely Night Drive [2017], Shadows [2019], and Fever Dream [2022]. Along the way, "Fire For You" reached RIAA gold status, generated nearly a quarter-of-a-billion streams, topped Alternative Radio, and landed massive syncs on the likes of NETFLIX's Never Have I Ever, American Horror Story, and more. CANNONS earned critical acclaim from The Hollywood Reporter, Billboard, FLAUNT, and Consequence of Sound while YouTube touted them among 2021's "Artists on the Rise." Emerging as a live force, they've headlined countless packed shows in addition to lighting up festivals such as Coachella, Lollapalooza, Life Is Beautiful, Outside Lands, and Electric Forest, to name a few. Evolving yet again, CANNONS kickstart another era with the sunny, sassy, and sexy funkified strut of their 2023 single "Loving You" and much more to come.

~~~~~~~~

All at once, CANNONS recall warm memories, soundtrack the bliss of the moment, and gaze towards a brighter tomorrow. The Los Angeles trio -- Michelle Joy [vocals], Ryan Clapham [lead guitar], and Paul Davis [drums, keys] -- co-mingle handcrafted analog production, glossy guitars, and cinematic synth-craft with fluid breathy vocals and evocative lyrics threaded together by classic songbook poise. (Think a Cliff Martinez score accompanied by Stevie Nicks, and you're half way there). Generating 20 million streams independently and landing placements on shows such as Lucifer, Never Have I Ever, and many others, the group continue to transfix audiences with a series of singles and more music on the horizon.

Originally formed in 2013, the band united lifelong friends and musical partners-in-crime Ryan and Paul with recent Los Angeles transplant Michelle. In addition to early radio support from tastemaker KCRW, "Body Talk" appeared in an episode of the HBO series Ballers, while the campaign for Kendall and Kylie Jenner's Topshop collection touted "Evening Star" as its theme. In between, the group released Night Drive [2017], the In a Heartbeat EP [2018], and Shadows [2019]. A stylist played the latter for Harry Styles who instantly fell in love with the band, shouting them out online. In 2020, "Fire For You" bubbled up into the collective pop culture consciousness. Synced in a pivotal episode of the NETFLIX smash Never Have I Ever, it elevated the show to #1 on The Hollywood Reporter's Top TV Songs Chart. Signing to Columbia Records, CANNONS now make a lasting impression and an even deeper connection.
