Amigo the Devil with Blitzen Trapper
Danny Kiranos, the songwriter behind Amigo the Devil, manages to meld the worlds (and fanbases) of traditional folk, country, rock, and metal. The sonic experience is morbid, yet poetic and oddly romantic, comparable to the bleak honesty of Leonard Cohen and Fiona Apple with the intensity of Nick Cave. His unique perspective and ability to connect with audiences allows him to amass a dedicated, cult-like fanbase. Loaded with singalongs - and an unsuspecting dose of humor to make otherwise grim topics accessible - the songs remain rooted in the ever-fleeting storytelling tradition.
~~~~~~~~
In the vast realm of modern folk and alternative rock, Amigo The Devil is an artist who channels a voice of unsettling beauty and raw truth. Nestled within the corners of his haunting melodies and daring experimentation is a tale as profound as the dirges he sings. Despite his growing notoriety, Amigo the Devil remains enigmatic. He isn't one to bask in the limelight, choosing once again to let the music speak for itself.
