Get ready, KALX listeners…iconic musician, producer, director, and performance artist, Peaches, is back after 10+ years and ready to tell all.
Tune in on Thursday, March 19th at 1pm to hear Peach Pit in conversation with Peaches before her show at The Midway in SF later that same night.
Latest album, No Lube So Rude, is a brash, unapologetic blend of electronic, dance, punk, industrial, and pop music that exists at the intersection of the personal and the political, where the body serves not only as a sexual and spiritual vessel, but also as the front line in a battle for basic human rights.
Peaches’ lyrics are bawdy and explicit here, laced with biting sarcasm and clever wordplay, but they’re also surprisingly vulnerable, offering up a candid look in the mirror from a post-menopausal queer icon reckoning with a society that’s come to expect silence, if not outright erasure.
The result is a deliberately provocative exploration of identity, sexuality, and bodily autonomy from a trailblazer, a singular work of emotional and sonic alchemy that balances the poetic and the profane in equal measure as it transforms all the friction and frustration of modern life into joy and transcendence.
Peaches has spent more than two decades pushing boundaries and breaking barriers, dramatically altering the landscape of popular culture as she forged a bold, sexually progressive path that’s opened the doors for countless others to follow.
