As you’ll hear in the interview Danny has had an interesting journey to become the artist he is today.  Danny went from a successful life as an honest to God, Master Brewer of craft beer to becoming a hugely popular one-man act with nothing more than banjo. Amigo the Devil is pretty much the torch-bearer for the genre known as “murder-folk”.  His songs are witty and wry takes on some of the darkest parts of human life including murder and human suffering. I really enjoyed our visit with Danny and found his life and the “murder-folk” side of things just down right interesting.  During the interview through zoom he even showed Carly and I some interesting pieces from his collection of oddities. This was another fun interview and I really think you’ll enjoy Danny and our dive into a new genre of music here on the podcast.
