King Canyon

Jimmy Cupples (vox) and James Ryan (guitar) are the songwriting force that formed the band in 2020. 

Their very first collaboration during lockdown was a thrilling and smooth process, which paved the way for a whirlwind of songwriting sessions. They quickly discovered an uncanny freedom to their approach, which allows them to explore different genres. So far the band has released eight singles, with a debut album just around the corner.

The impressive list of performance credits highlights the decades of experience and versatility between the four members. 

Men at Work, Tina Arena, Daryl Braithwaite, Deep Purple, Brian Cadd, Vanessa Amorosi, The Badloves, Ross Wilson, Kate Ceberano, Vika & Linda, Glen Shorrock, Richard Clapton...

Since forming in 2020, KC have already performed at notable events such as the Gympie Music Muster (QLD), Ravo Blues & Roots Festival (WA), The Point Live at Portsea (VIC), Country Rocks Festival (NSW), and toured nationally with Ross Wilson's Cool World Festival. 

In late 2022, King Canyon was signed to Golden Robot Records. 

"I’m very excited to welcome King Canyon to our international roster. The band features some of the best in Australia and their new material is brilliant - 2023 will be massive," CEO and president Mark Alexander-Erber.
