Simply by the Ape-ettes

Simply is The Ape-ettes follow-up to their self-titled freshman album. First time on vinyl, these songs explore the trials and tribulations of taking care of others while also trying to take care of yourself. First off, “Trampoline” is a straight up breakup song. Track 2, “Rémi”, is a fun little banger about raising a son while attempting to maintain a cool mom vibe. “Inner Child” is a psychedelic little number about love, and most importantly, self-love. The grand finale is “Hearing Protection”, a punchy tune about trying to grow old gracefully and a PSA about the very real dangers of punk rock- induced hearing loss. All in all, The Ape-ettes hope to inspire healthy habits in self-care, like brushing your teeth and protecting your hearing, so we can all live a long and happy life.

Emerging from the depths of Sudbury, Ontario, the Ape-ettes came to be, like a tiny musical gem unearthed from a mining town, nestled within a massive crater. This garage-rock trio is comprised of long-time friends, Andrée on bass, Melanie on drums and Julie on guitar and vocals.
