“Cannonball” by Hidden Charms

"Cannonball" by Hidden Charms is Northern Transmissions' 'Song of the Day.'

Hidden Charms recently released their new single “Cannonball.” The track, follows their 2015 single “Love You Cause You’re There” released on Deltasonic records, sees the band branch into new territory, having cut their teeth on touring the country’s best loved rock n’ roll venues for the last two years they’ve arrived at something totally unique. They have moved away from their traditional psychedelic style and waded into deeper waters, discordant guitar twangs tie together the visceral vocals. It’s obvious that Cannonball hints at a new chapter altogether for the band, and one that won’t sound like anything you’ve heard before.

The London outfit, comprising of Vincent Davies (vocals/guitar/bass), Ranald Macdonald (vocals/keys), Josh Lewis (guitar) and Oscar Robertson (drums), have already gained a fierce reputation for their live shows with support slots for Benjamin Booker, Hanni El Khatib, X Ambassadors and YAK over the last 18 months alongside a four-week Club NME Koko residency. Hidden Charms’ Cannonball, produced by Mr Chop (production credits include MF Dooms/Stones Throw Records).
