    Birth and Early Influences

    Julian Edwin Adderley, known as Cannonball, was born on September 15, 1928, in Tampa, Florida.

    His older brother was Nat Adderley, also a renowned jazz musician. Cannonball's nickname originated from his voracious appetite, earning him the moniker "cannibal" from his high school classmates.

    His formal music education began in high school, but his musical roots extended much earlier.

    When Cannonball's parents became faculty members at historically Black Florida A&M University, he and Nat performed alongside Ray Charles, who resided in Tallahassee during the 1940s.

    Musical Breakthrough in New York

    In 1955, Cannonball moved to New York City and made his mark on the jazz scene.
