Ape in Pink Marble

Ape in Pink Marble is the ninth studio album by folk rock musician Devendra Banhart, released on September 23, 2016 on Nonesuch Records.

[1] The album was written, produced, arranged, and recorded in Los Angeles by the singer/songwriter/guitarist with his longtime collaborators Noah Georgeson and Josiah Steinbrick, both of whom also worked on Banhart's previous album, Mala (2013).

[3] A couple of weeks after that, Banhart posted on Instagram that the album's recording and mixing was done.

[5] Ape in Pink Marble received a generally positive reception from music critics.

[7] Marcy Donelson from AllMusic stated, "The album's overall effect is one of strolling along a seaside path, maybe with a stray dog and a straw hat, in a less-frequented village somewhere far from home, and it's one of Banhart's most satisfying.
