Content Source: OztixAcclaimed singer/songwriter, Amigo The Devil, has announced an extensive 13-date Australian and New Zealand Tour this August. The shows will vary between solo and full band sets - tickets on sale Friday January 24 via Destroy All Lines.
Returning just over a year on from his Australian debut in February 2024, Amigo The Devil broadens the scope of his reach and adds Tasmania and the Northern Territory to the touring schedule.
The tour will begin Friday August 1 with three solo shows in New Zealand debuting at Loons in Christchurch, The Last Place in Hamilton and The Mothership in Auckland. From there, Amigo The Devil will play another solo show at Sol Bar on the Sunshine Coast before being joined by a full band at The Triffid in Brisbane, Factory Theatre in Sydney, Corner Hotel in Melbourne, Lion Arts Factory in Adelaide, and Amplifier Bar in Perth. A string of solo shows will round the tour out at Lyric's Underground in Fremantle, Railway Club in Darwin, Alter Bar in Hobart and finally Royal Oak in Launceston.
With a brilliant mind, full soul and a penchant for the obscure, Amigo The Devil, aka Danny Kiranos, has cultivated a dedicated fellowship of fans through his artistry and songwriting. His stories, from the tragic to the comedic, harkens back to a more brutal state of songwriting. His songs are greatly influenced by the honesty of Leonard Cohen, the creativity of Tom Waits and the ruthlessness of Chavela Vargas. Rather than imitate, he identifies with their authentic disregard of consequences when it comes to songwriting and releasing music. Amigo the Devil is not polished or clean hes all heart, with reckless abandon. His understanding of emotions is deep and instinctual, choosing to embrace ones flaws instead of trying to change them.
The latest chapter of Amigo the Devil comes in the form of February 2024's release of 'Yours Until the War is Over' his most disarming and singular work to date. The Australian Tour will see the debut of a handful of new tunes as well as a recounting of the old.
The 13 tracks that make up 'Yours Until the War is Over' together weave themes of relatable self destruction and trauma bonding with arresting authenticity. Riddled with obscure literary references akin to Kiranos maniac reading habit the album proves that this whole Amigo the Devil thing isnt some true crime niche. 'Yours Until the War is Over' is a songwriter's record. Amigo the Devil embodies the truest form of an artist in this new work. Inspired by a mantra adopted from unexpected, late-night advice, he doesnt have to be the story to tell the story.
Join Amigo The Devil this August as he reminds us all of the roots, the rawness and the reality that music can offer. Tickets on sale Friday January 24 via Destroy All Lines.
