History
Summarize
Perspective
Ryan Clapham and Paul Davis, who have been friends since childhood, began composing music together in their teenage years.[6][7] In 2013, Clapham and Davis formed Cannons with Michelle Joy after meeting her through the website Craigslist, where she had posted an advertisement seeking a band in need of a vocalist.[8] The trio collaborated on early Cannons material over the Internet, with Clapham and Davis emailing musical tracks to Joy, who would then email back her own lyrical and vocal contributions.[9][10]
Cannons issued their first EP Up All Night in 2014. The band then released their debut album Night Drive in 2017, as well as a second EP, In a Heartbeat, the following year. Shadows, Cannons' second album, was released in 2019 by AntiFragile Music.[11] "Fire for You", the first single from Shadows, gained significant commercial traction after being featured in a 2020 episode of the comedy-drama TV series Never Have I Ever.[6][7][12] The band subsequently signed to Columbia Records.[6] In early 2021, "Fire for You" reached number one on the Billboard Alternative Airplay chart.[13] Fever Dream, the band's third album, was released in March 2022.[14]
After teasing their fourth album for some months, and releasing three prior singles from the album, Cannons announced that Heartbeat Highway would be released on November 10, 2023, preceded by a fourth single, "Crush".[15]
