LISTEN NOW: Cannons in the Helpful Honda Sound Space
Joining host Kevan Kenney at KROQ in Los Angeles -- what could be considered their second home at this point -- Ryan Clapham, Michelle Joy, and Paul Davis of Cannons took over the Helpful Honda Sound Space for an intimate performance and interview just as their 2019 single “Fire For Fou” reached Platinum status.
“It's really exciting,” Michelle says of the news. “It was kind of a funny story, right?” adds Ryan, “because we didn't really know at first.” Michelle explains, “We didn't know for a little while, but it was really exciting. I mean, ‘Fire For You’ changed our lives and just makes us really happy to know that the fire keeps on burning.”
Keeping true to the sonic and aesthetic universe the band has created, they recently dropped their moody music video for their new single, “Sweeter.” Check it out below.
“We like to make mood boards for everything,” Michelle says, “and I feel like, for every music video we'll discuss what kind of visuals we're into at the moment, what movies we're watching, what kind of colors, what kind of things we feel represent Cannons and tie those into the music, the visuals and just try and create a world that does feel cohesive and that makes us feel like it's a nice escape that's beautiful and fun to enter.”
Quickly getting into a bit of the group’s life on the road, Cannons recently got a chance to perform for their second time at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado after first performing there just as COVID restrictions ended. “That was the biggest show I think we played at the time,” Michelle remembers, “so I was terrified, I didn't enjoy the first time. I was just nervous, and this time could look around and appreciate the crowd, the red rocks, everything. It was gorgeous.”
