ORIGINAL TOUR
ANNOUNCEMENT
Thursday, September 22
- Amy Schumer told Time
Magazine “Peaches is just the shit. She’s the bravest one of us out there.”
We couldn't agree more, and we're massively excited to announce that
boundary-breaking musician and performance artist is coming to Wellington
and Auckland for two shows, following her headline slot at Australia's
Meredith Festival this December.
This past year Peaches not only released her critically acclaimed Rub - but she won
the prestigious Polaris Heritage Prize for her iconic album The Teaches Of Peaches. That
debut album catapulted her into the spotlight with 'Fuck The Pain Away'
appearing everywhere from Sofia Coppola's Lost
In Translation and 30
Rock to South
Park and HBO's True
Blood. She followed that record with a series of critically
acclaimed releases featuring collaborations with Iggy Pop, Joan Jett, Josh
Homme, Beth Ditto and more.
The past six years have been some of the most productive in Peaches' artistic
career. From her one-woman production of Peaches
Christ Superstar, to the release of her first feature film Peaches Does Herself (an
electro-rock opera which she also directed and was originally staged at
Hebbel am Ufer in Berlin), to singing the title role in a production of
Monteverdi's epic 17th-century opera L'Orfeo,
and collaborating with Yoko Ono, Major Lazer, Jean-Michel Jarre and
REM. These last years between albums are now documented beautifully in
the new book What Else Is
In The Teaches Of Peaches, in which Yoko Ono writes
"Seeing her do Cut
Piece, and later, after attending her own shows, I have a clear
vision of future women artists led by the creative courage of Peaches. Thank
you, Peaches, for adding a long and exciting life to performance
art."
In her latest forays, Peaches has debuted the new video for ‘Vaginoplasty’
- the seventh feature video to be aired from the album Rub. "This is my
version of a fun summertime video inspired by Esther Williams” says Peaches.
And the release of Rub
Remixed - featuring updates, reworks and club bangers from an
all female lineup including CREEP's Lauren Flax, Paula Temple, Planningtorock,
Austra's Maya Postepski and more... traversing acid techno, hard house, trap,
deep electro, booty bass and future beats.
"Peaches always told us there are no boundaries in
self-expression. With a remix album entirely by female and female-identifying
producers on the way, it’s time to acknowledge her
legacy." - Dazed
RUB and RUB REMIXED are out now on Kartel.
Peaches has sold out another show - with her Auckland concert on December 18 fully booked. Fans who missed out have another chance with a second Auckland date added today. Tickets are on sale now at www.nonstoptix.com. This is the fourth and final show on the Peaches tour.
