Mario Amarilla

**Mario Amarilla** is an Argentine singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist known for his introspective indie-folk sound and poetic lyricism. Hailing from La Plata, he first gained recognition as the guitarist of the critically acclaimed garage-rock band *El Mató a un Policía Motorizado* before branching into solo work in the late 2010s. His music—marked by raw, acoustic textures and candid storytelling—often explores themes of longing, memory, and the quiet beauty of everyday life. Tracks like *Naranja* and *Habitar* showcase his knack for blending warm melodies with stripped-down arrangements, while releases such as *Hoy Los Planetas (Kitchen Demo)* highlight his DIY ethos and affinity for intimate, lo-fi recordings.

Amarilla’s recent work, including *Que Nos Vuelva A Encontrar* and *Many Homes*, leans into a nomadic, reflective vibe, echoing his roots in Argentina’s indie scene and his collaborations with fellow artists across Latin America. Whether through hushed demos or fuller studio efforts, his music feels like a conversation with an old friend—unpretentious, heartfelt, and deeply human.
