Cannons is a Los Angeles-based indie pop band known for their dreamy, synth-infused sound that seems to marry the sun-soaked vibe of Southern California with the sleek atmosphere of a neon-lit, nocturnal cityscape. The group was formed in 2013 by lead vocalist Michelle Joy, guitarist Ryan Clapham, and keyboardist Paul Davis. They gained initial recognition with their self-released debut album, "Night Drive," which showcased their ability to blend elements of '70s rock, '80s synth-pop, and modern dream pop into their nostalgia-inducing soundscapes.

The band's reputation has continued to grow with each new release, carving out a distinctive niche with their blend of ethereal vocals and lush instrumentation. Notable singles such as "Fire for You," which gained widespread attention after being featured on the Netflix series "Never Have I Ever," have helped to cement their status as rising stars in the alternative pop scene. With recent releases like "Heartbeat Highway" and "Bad Tattoo," Cannons continue to captivate their audience through heartfelt lyrics and a flair for retro-inspired melodies wrapped in a contemporary aesthetic. Their eclectic mix of influences has allowed them to craft a catalog of music that is both intimate and expansive, embodying a sound that feels timeless yet thoroughly modern.
