"Recorded in Brooklyn's Studio G with producer Eric Krasno (Tedeschi Trucks Band) and an intuitive band featuring Dap-Kings' trumpeter David Guy and alto saxophonist Cochemea Gastelum, the 11 tracks, all originals penned or co-penned by Neville or Krasno, get to Neville's very heart, placing his sweet voice in a gritty R&B setting".

"Three years after the release of My Story, his lone album for Blue Note, Aaron Neville relaunched the Tell It label (through Kobalt) with the very different Apache. In a way, it's among his freshest and yet also one of his oldest-sounding solo albums. Surprisingly, the compositions are strictly originals ... Apache could have easily slid into uninvolving sentimentality, but each song works some combination of the heart, mind, and hips".
