Keith Regan is a recording artist better known under his stage name, Amodeo. In his art, Amodeo blends multiple genres, bringing together elements of rap, hip-hop, and even pop. On top of being a singer-songwriter, he is also an entertainer to the core, whose latest release, “Take Me Away”, has got fans going wild.
For Amodeo, anything can serve as inspiration. His recent hit single, “What Did I Do”, as the title suggests, is a classic break-up song, dealing with an emotionally draining relationship. Tracks like “Take Me Away”, on the other hand, change up the mood a little, and deal with what it is to meet the right person, fall in love, and just roll with it.
“Over Now” returns to the topic of toxic partners, and why we return to them, while his upcoming release, “Hate Me (I’ve Got Good Taste)” is a tongue-in-cheek middle finger to anyone trying to tell you who to be.
Amodeo credits the premature death of his cousin, at only 17, with changing his outlook on life, and inspiring him to live life to the fullest, without regrets. Certainly, this is an attitude that can be felt in his music, with much of Amodeo’s music taking on a YOLO, yet at the same time mindful, feel.
He also credits Madonna as inspiration when it comes to his don’t care attitude, as well as greats such as Elvis and Michael Jackson for their vocals and style. As a teen, Amodeo came up on a steady diet of gangsta rap, with bands like Wu Tang Clan and Old Dirty Bastard blasting through the speakers. More mature now, Amodeo appreciates all styles of music, and never knows where inspiration will strike.
Hailing from musical parents, Amodeo grew up in a deeply artistic setting. When he was small, his parents would frequently be jamming out in their living room, and thus inspired Amodeo to take up singing lessons of his own.
Amodeo’s unique style of music and eye-catching fashion sense have made this singer-songwriter clearly marked as one of the most exciting names in the music industry at the moment. Although still new on the scene, Amodeo’s already scoring some big hits with his releases, and looks forward to a long, and no doubt successful, musical career.
