Strumming & synthing! I’m Danny L'Amour, an indie artist living in Brooklyn with my doggo. I pull from a lot of different influences but some of my biggest are alt rock groups like R.E.M. , Talking Heads and Benjamin Gibbard (Death Cab for Cutie, The Postal Service).

My debut album Love is Drugs + Love is War got over half a million streams and my follow up album is dropping October 11th!

Stoned Ape origin story:

As monkey swing through jungle, life simple, follow instincts. Live with playful monkey family, find fruits and nuts for hunger. Me no know life about change soon.

One day, while explore forest, me find strange sight - bunch of colorful mushrooms with pretty patterns. Me go close, curious what they do.

With curiosity, me take tiny bite of mushroom. Suddenly, warm feeling spread through body. Colors get intense, sounds get loud, world become magical. Forest alive like never before.

In this wild journey, me feel different. Thoughts become clear, me understand world more. Me feel connected to all living things, and ancient wisdom whisper in me ear.

As me swing in trees, me change. Me become stronger, limbs grow longer. Me tail disappear, replaced by balance and grace.

Me mind change, too. Thoughts come easy, me start use symbols, gestures, and sounds to speak. Me become smart, understand complex world.

Monkey family look at me strange. They see me not just monkey no more. They want to feel same, so they eat mushrooms. They change, too. They become smarter, more aware.

Many generations pass, descendants keep evolving with mushrooms. They make tools, control fire, create art in cave. They learn about themselves, become humans.

Mushrooms changed us all. Our ancestors, eat mushrooms, get smart, become humans.

Me, once simple monkey, now human. Me grateful to mushrooms for opening mind and giving self-awareness.
