Wow...Albert King,Jimi Hendrix,Otis Rush, Lefty Dizz,Little Jimmy King, Stan Skibby...all the Left-handed guys. And all the ELDERS of the Blues (living and dead) famous or not that paved the way for me to even pick up a guitar and do this.
I've had my band for 8 years now. We're a BLUES band but i like to freak it out a bit, so we might play anything. We've played the Chicago Blues Fest (Gibson stage), Pickles Blues fest (Lima Ohio) I've been to RIGA, LATVIA 3 times. San Jose Jazz Fest, Kentucky,Indiana,Iowa,Michigan...And various clubs in Chicago... House of Blues Hotel,Buddy Guys, Kingston Mines Andys Jazz, B.L.U.E.S,Blue Chicago, Harlem Ave Lounge etc....My goal is to keep this Blues alive and do it right.
“Modern, loud and funky blues...one of the striking new talents on the Chicago
blues scene...Cannon dazzles with his guitar playing.”—Blues & Rhythm(UK)
“No matter how wild he gets, he’s always saying something in his solos, not
just slinging notes around for the sake of it. His vocals are equally expressive,
whether he’s testifying on a soul-tinged number or braying a blues anthem.”
—Chicago Reader
I've also been featured in Blues Matters (UK) and Living Blues (USA) magazines
