Ruby Cannon Shares New EP ‘Ruby and the Cannons’
This year has been incredibly welcoming for Ruby Cannon within the music industry. After playing Laneway Festival back in February alongside Phoebe Bridgers, HAIM, and many more, she has cemented herself in Melbourne’s surf rock scene.
When Ruby Cannon was seven years old, her father gave her the first guitar she had ever owned in the seaside hamlet of Phillip Island. Following her high school graduation, she enrolled at JMC Academy to pursue a Bachelor of Music degree. It was then that she first started penning songs that were influenced by her favorite bands, Fleetwood Mac, The Velvet Underground, and The Rolling Stones. She quickly discovered her sound amid the surfy, desert dream of the ‘70s that she lives in.
Ruby and the Cannons, is a four-track offering that was written during the COVID-19 pandemic, when Melbourne had the strictest lockdown laws. Three years ago, Ruby Cannon composed the tunes using an acoustic guitar. It was upon the formation of her band that these tunes entered their flourishing grounds.
The EP infuses genres of indie, surf-rock, desert, and 70’s sound with an energetic and happy vibe present upon each track. The production of the tunes features acoustic guitars, electric guitars, drums, synths, bass guitar, and Ruby Cannon’s captivating vocals.
On the song, Ruby Cannon says: “I’m so excited to be finally releasing music that really feels like me, these songs are the sound I’ve been trying to find for a long time.”
Miami, FL Lyricist & Veteran MC Kingdom Kome goes to Colombia to fill his sweet tooth in a new double video and single(s) drop for “Mantecon” and “Arepa Mantecon.” The video (was filmed by Franco Imagemaker and Edited by David Sakolsky of Gusto Gold Productions)was shot on location in Medellin, which is also the home turf of producer The Equation Beats.
This is the first drop from the forthcoming full-length collaboration between the two entitled Arepa Y Manteca. Named for a traditional Colombian delicacy, according to Argentinian born Kingdom Kome “we decided to keep the project real paisa, which means countryman. This includes most of the album collaborators Colombian Raw, AjaxLo & CTraffik.”
Other album guests will include Che Uno, Sunez Allah and ParaNoize and the result is ominous instrumentals and grimy beats clashing with disrespectful lyrics in two languages.
Watch the official video for “Mantecon/Arepa Mantecon” here:
The genesis of this album grew out of a track that The Equation Beats produced for the duo project of Kingdom Kome & Che Uno known as Los Chicos Criollos featuring Crimeapple.

Based on the strength of that song, Kingdom Kome and The Equation Beats kept it moving and lo and behold Arepa Y Manteca is on the way! In addition to the recent full-length drop D10S Sucio of Los Chicos Criollos, Kingdom Kome is also promoting Dirty Linens, a fully collaborative project with Brockton, MA’s G Fam Black.
