Cannonball Drops Infectious Summer Anthem "Flip Flops," Blending Fun and Social Commentary

Following the success of their latest single, "Creeping Beauty," which made several appearances on the World Indie Top 100 in November and December 2023, Cannonball's French rockers are back with another explosive track: "Flip Flops."

With an infectious groove, a bassline reminiscent of Flea's signature style, and a catchy, bumper-sticker-worthy refrain, this song is poised to dominate summer playlists. After all, what's more essential than a pair of flip flops in the summer, right? The song makes a compelling case for trying on a pair, and interestingly, Cannonball has no endorsement deal with any flip flop brand—a testament to their wonderfully selfless nature!

Beyond the playful topic, the song delves into how consumerism has overshadowed most political discourse in today's world. The pursuit of purchasing power has supplanted free will in the minds of many. As the concept of freedom diminishes, mass manipulation becomes effortless. Like hamsters on a wheel, we run, oblivious to the pressing issues of our time, chasing after the latest market novelties. Human life has never seemed so cheap—only slightly more valuable than the price of a pair of flip flops!

Once again, beneath the veneer of a lighthearted song, Cannonball addresses profound social and political issues. But don't worry, you'll still be dancing your heart out to it! Flip flops, yeah!

"Cannonball will get your ass up, head banging and jumping like an idiot, whether you like it or not." Greta Thunberg

Coming straight from Lille, northern France, this rock bomb is about to explode worldwide. As catchy as polemical, it will turn you to its side without you even noticing. Painting the world with raw colours, Cannonball's songs target society's wounds, intimate epiphanies or sheer non-sense : nothing is out of its range (no pun intended).

Born in the mind of Ian – a singer-songwriter active in different genres like pop, folk, electro, groove or swing – Cannonball gives him the opportunity of spitting his venom. Along with anger and frustration – main fuel of rock’n’roll for decades – a deeper analysis of our society is another key to unlock Cannonball’s safe. You’ll get food for your soul and your mind.

With influences from classic rock to grunge, power pop, pop-punk, indie rock, metal or french cancan, Cannonball's watchwords are "melody" and "energy". Ready? FIRE!!!
