With a baritone as dynamic as it is indestructible, Daniel Knox narrates compositions with a perverse and sometimes comical wit, guiding the listener through sprawling worlds that exist just out of frame.
His work has inspired a diverse cast of admirers and collaborators that lie inside and outside his realm of alternative Americana, such as Jarvis Cocker, Thor Harris (Swans, Freakwater), Ralph Carney (Tom Waits, The B-52's), Nina Nastasia, David Lynch, and The Handsome Family, with recent performances including the likes of Rufus Wainwright, Andrew Bird, Rasputina, and Swans.
Daniel Knox's most recent release Mercado 48 comes on the heels of Won't You Take Me With You and it's predecessor - his critically acclaimed grand holistic album Chasescene, which confirmed his position as both a "rare talent" (Loud And Quiet) and as a master storyteller (The Observer).
Mercado 48 finds Knox at his most accessible and assured - the unconventional beauty of his piano style fitting perfectly with long dream-like stretches of synthesizers while Knox's rich baritone buries deeper within the music. It exists as a line in the sand and a turning point, a perfect entry point into looking back on a fascinating career while at the same time the moment to strap in for whatever is to come.
In 2024 Knox co-wrote and performed the song I Saw You with composer Joseph Bishara (Insidious; The Conjuring) for the Sony Pictures film Tarot.
Daniel Knox lives and works in Porto, Portugal.
