Authentic Detroit: Tony Nova Plays Cannons—The Newest Landmark for Underground Music

Spread the love

The Detroit sound isn’t just a genre; it’s a lineage. In a city where the blueprint for electronic music was drawn, the spaces that host it carry a heavy weight. Right now, that weight is centered at Cannons on Mack Avenue.

If you haven’t been paying attention, Cannons has rapidly become the city’s newest sanctuary for the real. This isn’t just hype—this is a venue that has already been blessed by two of the “Big Three,” hosting the architects themselves: Juan Atkins and Derrick May. When a room has been tuned by the pioneers, the frequency of every night that follows is elevated.

On Friday, March 6th, the legacy continues. Tony Nova steps into the booth for an “Authentic Detroit” live session that honors the past while pushing the boundaries of the future.

Beyond the Standard DJ Set

This isn’t a “press play” situation. This is a live electronic performance. Tony Nova will be bringing his hardware-driven rig to the upper floor, crafting a journey of soul-infused House and driving Techno in real-time.

To ensure the energy remains raw and organic, Nova is joined by Dr. Tingle Fingers on live percussion. The synergy between digital sequences and the physical heartbeat of the drums creates a vibration that you simply cannot replicate in a standard club setting. Opening the night, JeffreyNothing will be curating the deep foundations, setting the tone for an immersive five-hour trip.

For the Culture

We believe in the power of the dance floor as a community space. That is why we are keeping this session FREE / NO COVER. Whether you were there when the first wave hit or you’re just discovering the depth of the Detroit sound, this night is for you.

Join us on the upper floor of Cannons for a night of deep rituals and pure rhythm.
