'Cannonball' is inspired by the jazz/groove/soul music of the late saxophone giant Julian 'Cannonball' Adderley. His work transcended musical boundaries with its heavy blues and gospel influence combined with a deep, infectious groove.

‘Cannonball Live’ was recorded live at Bennetts Lane Jazz Club in Melbourne, Australia, and includes a collection of songs from varying sources. Some are rearrangements from the classic albums that Cannonball recorded with Ernie Andrews and Nancy Wilson, whilst others are drawn from the great American songbook.

The members of the ensemble boast a broad range of performance credits including Ray Charles, Jerry Lewis, Hugh Jackman, Michael Buble, Natalie Cole, James Morrison, The Australian Art Orchestra, Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, Mike Nock, and Bobby Shew.
