Kippa, also known as Richard Cannon, is an island blues musician best known for his lap slide guitar. A regular sight at island jams, he is also host of the Dirty Ol' Blues Show on Beach Radio at 7pm on Sundays.

Kippa's musical story reaches back to the 1960s, when as a young muso, his first gig was to support Lee Scratch Perry.

Check out his MySpace pagewhere you can hear some of his music,including Mean Ol' Street.

"From when I was a young boy, the music never failed to captivate me,the wailing and screaming, wild vocals of all them old dudes who we grew up listening to." Kippa.
