Ape Biography
Led by their mysterious leader, Mr. Patricio Nakkamono, Ape delivers a fresh yet still gritty form of rock, where the balance between these elements feels both innovative and natural.
After their first performance, rumors quickly spread about a band that left no one looking well-groomed after a show. The band's engaging and energetic live show draws even the most prim and proper into that tight and sweaty first row at the front.
Something often heard after a performance is, "I usually don't like this kind of heavy music, but…", followed by a revelatory insight.
Their previous song 'All You Need Is Hate' was all about setting one's inner anger free. Now, the band follows up with love and desire in their new single 'Danny Boy,' the first release in a series of planned songs after a period in the studio.
The next single is rumored to be about something entirely different, something one has come to expect from Ape's multifaceted creative joy.
