Details:
Dylan Judah helped to form Cannons, (1997-2003), one of the West Coast's most skillful and heartfelt reggae bands. Non-stop club and festival performances from back in 1997 up until now have been the platform for Dylan Judah to sing his songs from Cannon's first two independently produced CDs: THANKS & PRAISE (1999) & LIFE-ELEMENTS-VISION (2002), and most recently from his debut album DYLAN-JUDAH (2004).

2003 was Dylan Judah's & Cannons most exciting year in-terms of high profile performances (Bob Marley Day in the Long Beach Arena, UCLA Reggae Festival, The Key Club, House of Blues, etc.) Performing at Los Angles' most prestigious events every month of 2003 was the key to Dylan Judah's and Cannons' massive promotional campaign, as well as Los Angeles area DJs regularly spinning their favorite Dylan Judah and Cannons tunes (98.7 KPFK, 100.3 The Beat, 92.3 Hot Jamz, etc.)

Dylan Judah, who is a prolific singer, song-writer and producer, began his musical career as a young drummer, driving the rhythm of his teenage Ska band Caught in the Act (C.I.A), 1988-1992. During those formative years Dylan traveled to apartheid-era South Africa and Jamaica on several occasions. From these most influential and eye-opening experiences, Dylan emerged as an impassioned singer, rooted in the Rasta-life, and committed to bridging the gap between 1st & 3rd worlds, rich and poor, nation and nation, -ism & schism. Listen to Dylan Judah's messages and you will find words on encouragement, upliftment through UNITY, LOVE, TRUTH & RIGHTS, and much more.

In 2004 Dylan Judah is presenting the world with his self-titled, debut release. This album is produced by Dylan Judah, engineered and dubbed by the world renowned Hopton Brown a.k.a. "Scientist" and performed by many members of Cannons with the great addition of legendary drummer Carlton 'Santa' Davis (drummer with Peter Tosh, Ziggy Marley, etc.).

Dylan Judah has shared the stage with Run-DMC, Burning Spear, Jimmy Cliff, Sean Paul, Third World, Pato Banton, Don Carlos, Buju Banton, Damian Marley, Long Beach Dub All-Stars, Sugar Black, and many more.
