LOOSE CANNON is an 80's metal cover band formed by veteran CNY musicians with over thirty years of experience. Performing popular songs from the greatest guitar era of music is what we love to do. Pounding out high energy covers with a stage show to match, LOOSE CANNON is not only a feast for the ears, but also the eyes. We believe that giving one hundred percent every time we hit the stage is essential in entertaining the people. The music comes first, but without the show, it's just another band. You see, no one ever says, "Lets go out and hear a band." People go out to SEE a band. LOOSE CANNON blasts onto the stage with an adrenaline fueled, high octane show every time and doesnt let up until the lights go down!

"WOW,last nights concert featuring LOOSE CANNON was just simply AWESOME!! Fans were treated to the unmistakably cool music of Van Halen, Crue, AC/DC, Judas Priest and more with an energy level that remained noticeably palatable throughout the entire evening" -Visit Oswego NY on Facebook
"Once LOOSE CANNON hit the stage(at the 95X Birthday Bash)... These guys had the crowd singing and moving to 80's hard rock of Motley Crue, Van Halen and Ozzy. They started the day off right and it continued from there." -Kim Richer UpstateLive.com

Winter is upon us and that means LC takes a little break. We take this break to add several new tunes and to add elements to our show, as well as spend time with our families during the holidays. What can you expect from LOOSE CANNON in 2019? Well, new songs, of course, including another tune featuring the bagpipers. Also, we really want to rev up our live show with more effects and Tee Shirts are on their way. It's the 80's... GO BIG OR GO HOME! The first show on the docket is a Valentines Day Celebration at Dominick's in Oswego. Be sure to check out LC at a venue near you and if you want to see us play somewhere, let us know and tell the venue to hit us up on Facebook. Happy Holidays from Rich, Josh, Tim, Ted, Tom and Mary! See ya soon and SOUND THE GUNS!!!

Just because LC takes the winter off from playing shows, that doesnt mean we aren't working. We are taking this time to learn a bunch of new songs and add to our big 80's style stage show. Yes, there are big lights. Yes, there is fog and fog geysers. Yes, there are siren lights, shock lights and of course there are BAGPIPERS! Even with all of that, Loose Cannon doesn't want anyone to come to a show and walk away saying that they've seen it all before. We will continue to have new elements added to the stage show and new songs on the set list throughout the upcoming year. Come check out what LC has in store for in the upcoming year! Sound The Guns!!!
What a great way to finish out the year! Our last show of 2017 was incredible. With a packed house at Roadhouse 48, we finished out the year with a bang. The crowd was loud and rocked with us the entire night, forcing us to do an encore. Now it's time to take a little break. During this break, we shall be learning many new 80's tunes, as well as stepping up our stage show. Look for us to come back strong with two shows in April, Friday the 6th at The Gig at Turning Stone and Saturday the 21st at Average Joe's in Baldwinsville.
LOOSE CANNON has one final show on Saturday, November11th(9-1), before they take a few months off to add even more 80's metal tunes to their sets, as well as some new and exciting additions to their big 80's stage show. Roadhouse 48 in Fulton, NY will be the final destination of the year. A great place to eat, drink and see a band, Roadhouse 48 is one of the few venues in the area to have a stage big enough to fit all of the LOOSE CANNON bells and whistles. Be sure to get out to see LC on Nov. 11th and enjoy the 80's metal you know and love. Of course, we will be celebrating Veterans Day with Josh's killer rendition of the National Anthem. See You There!
The crowd at The Tiki Bar in Baldwinsville was surprised and extremely excited when LOOSE CANNON performed the AC/DC classic, Long Way To The Top and were joined onstage by a pair of bagpipers. Mary and Tom became the hit of the show with their hard rocking bagpipes and then started off the second set intro with Amazing Grace on the pipes. No matter how much energy you have or how hard you rock, bagpies are a hard act to follow. Mary and Tom will be making appearances every now and then to take the 80's metal show up a notch, so don't miss a single show! You never know what LOOSE CANNON has up their sleeves.
Throughout summer and into fall, LOOSE CANNON has been packing venues from Syracuse to Oswego and everywhere in between. Their brand of hard hitting, adrenaline fueled 80's metal along with the big stage show is a real crowd pleaser. The addition of the bagpipers has taken the LC show to the next level. If you're looking to go back to a simpler time(For One Night) where the music and the show are all about having a good time, then a LOOSE CANNON show is for you!
