    AppleTree is a Colombian rock band formed in Bogotá in 2012, consisting of Camilo Andrés Cárdenas (lead vocals, guitar), Alex González (Bass) and Cristian Galeano (Drums). Their music is inspired by indie rock bands with Lo-Fi aesthetics like Pavement, Guided by Voices, Dinosaur Jr. and Sebadoh.

    Beginning - Draft (EP)

    In 2011 Camilo attended to a Sebadoh gig at Electric Ballroom while he was living in London. He feigned to be a journalist to meet Lou Barlow and he had to make an interview for having a chat with him. After that gig he decided to formed a new indie rock band. When he went back to Bogotá, convinced his cousin Alex to start the band.

    They wrote their first songs and recorded their first EP called "Draft" by mid 2012 with Fabián Cárdenas as producer and their bedrooms as studio. This EP was mastered in Blue Mountain in Nashville, USA. In October of 2012 Cristian joins the band and they played their first gigs opening for the British band The Palace of Justice in different cities of Colombia.

    Appletree

    by: Erykah Badu

    I'd like to dedicate this to all the Creator's righteous children
    I have some food in my bag for you
    Not the edible food, the food you eat, no
    I have some food for thought, since knowledge is infinite
    It has infinitely fell on me, so, umm
    It was a stormy night, you know
    The kind where the lightnin' strike
    And I was hangin' out with some
    Of my artsy friends, ooh wee ooh wee ooh
    The night was long, the night went on
    People coolin' out until the break of dawn
    Incense was burnin' so I'm feelin' right, aight
    See, I pick my friends like I pick my fruit
    My Granny told me that when I was only a youth
    I don't walk around tryin' to be what I'm not
    I don't waste my time tryin' to get what you got
    I work at pleasin' me 'cause I can't please you
    And that's why I do what I do
    My soul flies free like a willow tree
    Doo wee doo wee doo wee
    And if you don't wanna be down with me
    You don't wanna pick from my appletree
    And if you don't wanna be down with me
    Then you don't wanna pick from my appletree
    And if you don't want to be down with me
    Then you don't want to pick from my appletree
    And if you don't wanna be down with me
    You just don't wanna be down
    I have a hoe and I take it everywhere I go
    'Cause I'm plantin' seeds so I reaps what I sow
    You know, you know, on and on, and on and on and on
    My cypher keeps movin' like a rollin' stone
    I can't control the soul flowin' in me, ooh wee ooh wee
    See, I pick my friends like I pick my fruit
    My Granny told me that when I was only a youth
    I don't walk around tryin' to be what I'm not
    I don't waste my time tryin' to get what you got
    I work at pleasin' me 'cause I can't please you
    And that's why I do what I do
    My soul flies free like a willow tree
    Doo wee doo wee doo wee
    And if you don't wanna be down with me
    You don't wanna pick from my appletree
    And if you don't wanna be down with me
    Then you don't wanna pick from my appletree
    And if you don't wanna be down with me
    You don't wanna pick from my appletree
    And if you don't wanna be down with me
    You just don't wanna be down
    Oh my my my
    Oh my my my
    Oh my my my
    My my my
    See, I pick my friends like I pick my fruit
    My Granny told me that when I was only a youth
    I don't walk around tryin' to be what I'm not
    I don't waste my time tryin' to get what you got
    I work at pleasin' me 'cause I can't please you
    And that's why I do what I do
    My soul flies free like a willow tree
    Doo wee doo wee doo wee
    And if you don't wanna be down with me
    You don't wanna pick from my appletree
    And if you don't wanna be down with me
    Dum dum diddy
    And if you don't wanna be down with me
    You don't wanna pick from my appletree
    And if you don't wanna be down with me
    You just don't wanna be down
    (You just don't wanna be down)
    You just don't wanna be down
    You just don't wanna be down
    Down, down, down
    You just don't wanna be down
    You just don't wanna be down
    Down, down, down
    Down, down, down
    Down, down, down
