Blistering guitar. Raw soul. Real stories. Chicago bluesman Toronzo Cannon brings the fire with his latest album Shut Up and Play!, showcasing 11 emotionally charged originals packed with biting humor, social insight, and cathartic solos. A former CTA bus driver turned internationally acclaimed artist, Cannon is known for turning everyday struggles into blues anthems, channeling legends like Muddy Waters, Son Seals, and Jimi Hendrix while forging his own fierce sound.
Praised by Guitar World as “a real deal blueser” and by Chicago Reader as “one of Chicago’s finest string-bending storytellers,” Cannon's mix of searing guitar work, impassioned vocals, and rich songwriting make him a modern blues powerhouse. His songs tackle everything from heartbreak to injustice, with tracks like “I Hate Love,” “Message To My Daughter,” and the defiant title track, “Shut Up and Play!,” resonating deeply with fans worldwide.
With 10 Blues Music Award nominations, critical acclaim from MOJO, Living Blues, Blues Music Magazine, and CNN, plus stages shared with Gary Clark Jr. and Joe Bonamassa, Cannon has become a torchbearer for contemporary Chicago blues. Whether in the club or on the festival stage, he delivers every performance with grit, grace, and unmistakable heart.
