ConcernedApe is the pseudonym of Eric Barone, an American game developer and composer best known for creating the indie farming simulation game, "Stardew Valley." ConcernedApe single-handedly developed the game over several years, handling all aspects of its creation, from coding and design to composition and audio design. "Stardew Valley" was initially released in 2016 to critical acclaim and has since become a beloved title within the indie game community.

Apart from the game's charming pixel art and engaging gameplay mechanics, ConcernedApe's musical compositions have played a significant role in the cozy and nostalgic atmosphere that defines "Stardew Valley." The game's soundtrack has received praise for its catchy melodies and the ability to capture the essence of various in-game seasons and locales. Following the success of the original soundtrack, ConcernedApe has continued to enrich the game's auditory palette with updates and additional collections, such as the "Stardew Valley Piano Collections," which offers fans beautifully reimagined versions of their favorite themes for the piano. With each update to the game, new music tracks are often introduced, allowing fans to continuously enjoy the expanding universe of "Stardew Valley" not only through gameplay but also through its evolving soundtrack.
