KING CANNONS

Auckland City, New Zealand, 2008:5 likeminded souls emerge from the punk rock landscape to shake up the music world with their own brand of rock ‘n’ roll.Bonds are forged, plans are drafted; “King Cannons” is born.Raw, energetic and genuinely honest, their influences span many genres and many walks of life. Country, rock ‘n’ roll, reggae and punk are but a few of the styles that make this sound unique, challenging the conventions of genre and form while rising above the discrimination and giving everybody, everywhere something to enjoy. The King Cannons sound encompasses everything from the power of The Clash to the soul of Chuck Berry; the style of Desmond Dekker and the raw emotion of Johnny Cash. In one sentence: an assault on the airwaves.No strangers to hard work, King Cannons have already amassed a formidable arsenal of songs including “Teenage Dreams” and “Gasoline” which enjoy strong, underground success on the local circuit and the band continues to write and perform extensively. Throw in support slots for punk legends, “THE ADICTS”, “U.K. SUBS” and “STIFF LITTLE FINGERS”, and the future bodes well for this highly motivated five-some, a future that will see them re-locate to the United Kingdom in 2008.So what is King Cannons all about?It’s about doing things the right way.It’s about staying positive through the blood, the sweat and the fear all in pursuit of something you love.It’s about the Music. And that’s the truth...CONTACT and BOOKINGS:UK Tel: 0794 314804 [email protected] ----------------------------------------------
