Amigo The Devil
Amigo the Devil is a noir-folk troubadour whose music is rooted in rugged Americana traditions but often features introspective storytelling and a hint of gothic melodrama. Themes of death, murder, and dismay are strung throughout 2018's Everything Is Fine and 2021's Born Against, albums which are centered around the singer's spare banjo and guitar parts, but these also include sweeping orchestration and detours into heavy metal. Amigo's experimental third LP, Yours Until the War Is Over, appeared in early 2024.
Born Danny Kiranos in Miami, Florida, the artist absorbed the musical heritage of his Greek father and Spanish mother, later pairing it with American folk, alt-rock, and metal. After dalliances with both film and culinary schools, Kiranos eventually found work in the brewing industry around San Francisco, where he first began playing shows under the moniker Amigo the Devil. After a subsequent move to Austin, Texas, the project began to take root and he released a series of EPs that were later collected as part of the 2018 full-length Volume 1.
Around this time, Kiranos began working with the Regime Music Group to better distribute the music on his own Liars Club imprint. He released his first proper album, Everything Is Fine, later that year. It bore his hallmark darkness, but also signaled something of a shift toward a more expansive songwriting style that encompassed multiple styles and a more personal bent. 2021's Born Against went even further, utilizing string sections and an experimental production style reminiscent of Tom Waits' work in the '80s. Amigo the Devil continued down this increasingly experimental path on 2024's Yours Until the War is Over while further honing his craft as a narrator of macabre tales.
