WITH SUPPORT FROM NATE BERGMAN
Kiranos and his band have been touring throughout 2024 to promote ‘Yours Until The War Is Over’, his third studio album that was released in February. The record has received a swathe of accolades and drawn comparisons to the likes of Tom Waits and Leonard Cohen with a set of songs that serve as cinematic vignettes threading together stories of the human condition, trauma bonding and the method of using relationships for survival. All heart, with no boundaries, it is an album to be experienced from beginning to end in order to recognise the perspective it offers.

The album title is a reference to the love affair between Ernest Hemingway and his nurse Agnes von Kurowsky in the closing months of World War I, a (trauma) bond that developed after the future novelist was severely wounded in Italy just after becoming a Red Cross volunteer at the age of 18. She would sometimes end her love letters by writing “Yours until the war is over,” a sign-off that proved prophetic, her ultimate rejection devastating and scarring him.
Having completed a US tour with Flogging Molly in late March, Danny & co. played 14 headlining shows in Australia and New Zealand in April before returning home for further ongoing dates with Frank Turner ahead of their upcoming visit to the UK.

What the Press Thinks of Yours Until The War Is Over:
“With its haunting melodies, evocative lyrics and raw emotional depth, the album is sure to resonate with listeners long after the final notes fade away”
BLUES MATTERS
“Leaning into the blues and flourishes of Americana, it creeps into your soul with repeated listens”
VIVE LE ROCK
“Demands concentration but rewards effort. The lyrical content is exceptional; the pictures that Kiranos paints with his words are vivid and the wit employed in mostly unexpected places is a joy”
AMERICANA UK
“His ability to craft an emotion with just a few words is staggering. Some people need huge orchestras and the highest of production values to move the listener. Here, Kinaros just needs breath 9.8/10”
BACKSEAT MAFIA
“When you start chucking words about like ‘genius’ around records, then you can look a bit silly, but sod it. Quite simply the best at what he does, even if what he does defies categorisation 10/10”
MAXIMUM VOLUME MUSIC
“Inspired by legends like Leonard Cohen and Tom Waits, the quality of Kiranos’ writing, wordplay and instrumentation cement his place among them. A masterpiece 5/5”
