Draped Apes is a new indie-psych rock group out of Nashville. Led by multi-instrumentalist Timoscles, the group revolves around a steady core of longtime collaborators, which expands and contracts with new friends according to each song’s needs. 

Electric guitars anchor this wide-ranging effort which explores the celebratory futility of life. Experimental fx and sound painting complicate the image. Drawing on primal emotions like anger and desire, the result has the vulnerability of a singer/songwriter but the bravado of rock and roll.

Supported by artist-friendly label Last Night from Glasgow, the group heads to the UK for a tour in Autumn 2024 showcasing this new material of a heavier and more shaggy-around-the-edges variety. Timoscles is building on his last project, Andre Salvador and the Von Kings, whose final album reached the top 40 on the UK Independent Album charts. 

First single, “Say Nothing,” came out 20 September 2024 via LNFG.
