“Do yourself a favor and listen to Daniel Knox’s ‘Ghostsong’ at least 398 times . . . Never has something so mean been so beautiful.”
Robyn O’Neil, The Believer Magazine
“With his roguish wit and rich warble, this telegenic Chicagoan pianist was the highlight of the Barbican’s ‘Twisted Christmas’.”
Time Out London in a preview of “2009’s Hottest Music Acts”
Daniel Knox is [a] must-see ... His gift is his rich, resonant voice. It fills a room as well as any band, though Knox uses his piano and an uncluttered host of accompaniments to give full body to his delightfully macabre songs.
Kim Bellware, Flavorpill
“His skewed and darkly humorous lyrics give songs about gambling, murder and a porno booth in Indiana plenty of unexpected twists … the fact that Knox has a golden croon straight out of mid-century Hollywood makes his act . . . that much more captivating.”
Eric Swedlund, Tucson Weekly
“...bearded Daniel Knox at the grand piano, his rich baritone warbling its way through ‘Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas’ as though Bing Crosby and Judy Garland had never existed. His self-penned piece, ‘Me And My Wife,’ was just as thrilling; more of him would have been welcome.”
Michael Hubbard, Music OMH
