Who says music isn't a universal language?

Today, we sit down with the inspiring young artist Cannon Moore, a 21-year-old musician from Florida.

Diagnosed with autism at the tender age of five, Cannon shares his journey through the world of music and how it helped him overcome the challenges posed by his condition. From his early social struggles to an unconventional educational path, Cannon's tale is one of resilience, determination, and the incredible power of music.

Life is a journey, and we all face challenges. What is remarkable about Cannon is his unwavering pursuit of his dreams, despite the obstacles he has encountered.

Homeless and jobless at some point, he found solace in music and a supportive group of friends.

Cannon's journey is testament to the power of friendship and the magic that can happen when you pair talent with relentless determination.

He also discusses the importance of understanding autism and its effects on daily life, striking a chord with his candid insights.

But the journey doesn't end there for Cannon.

This ambitious musician has a vision for his future that's as bright as his spirit. He dreams of spreading happiness through his music, aspiring to deejay at large festivals and make a living from his passion.

He shares his plans to move to Colorado, hoping to establish new connections in the EDM music industry.
