An iconic feminist musician, producer, director, and performance artist, 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 thatโ€™s opened the doors for countless others to follow.

Through music, art, film, theater, television, and books, she has upended stereotypes and embraced taboos,
challenging social norms and patriarchal power structures while championing LGBTQ+ rights and issues of gender and sexual identity with biting wit and fearless originality.

She first catapulted to international stardom with her โ€œsurreally funny [and] nastyโ€ (Rolling Stone) 2000 debut, The Teaches of Peaches, an album which upended stereotypes and embraced taboos as it introduced the world to Peachesโ€™ raunchily explosive persona. Since then, sheโ€™s released four more critically acclaimed albums
prompting the New York Times to dub her a โ€œgenuine heroineโ€ and Uncut to rave that she brings together “high art, low humor, and deluxe filth [in] a hugely seductive combination.โ€

In addition to collaborating with everyone from Daft Punk and The
Flaming Lips, to P!nk, and Yoko Ono her music has been honored with the prestigious Polaris Heritage Prize, and been featured in cultural watermarks like Lost In Translation, The Handmaidโ€™s Tale, and Broad City, and studied at universities around the world.

An equally prolific visual and performance artist, Peaches has directed over twenty of her own videos, curated a stunning book of Holger Talinski photographs documenting
her life on and off the road, and participated in some of modern artโ€™s most prominent gatherings, including Art Basel Miami and the Venice Biennale.

In 2010, she unveiled
Peaches Does Herself, an electro-rock opera spanning material from throughout her career that was arranged into a loosely autobiographical narrative. It morphed into a
film of the same title, which premiered at the TIFF in 2012 before traveling to more than 70 festivals around the world.

Peaches continued her foray into theater with a one- woman production of Jesus Christ Superstar, redubbed Peaches Christ Superstar, which
continues to be performed at theaters and festivals globally and was featured in 2016 as part of the Kammerspiele Munich repertoire.

Ever eclectic, she sang the title role in a
Berlin production of Monteverdi’s epic 17th-century opera Lโ€™Orfeo and joined forces with Yoko Ono on a recreation of her iconic 1964 performance Cut Piece at the 2013 Meltdown Festival in London. Ono later said that Cut Piece will never be performed again with such
eloquence,โ€ adding โ€œI have a clear vision of future women artists led by the creative courage of Peaches.โ€

In 2019, Peaches starred as Anna in the Staatstheater Stuttgartโ€™s new adaptation of Brecht/Weillโ€™s The Seven Deadly Sins and launched her first institutional solo art exhibition that premiered at the Kunstverein in Hamburg entitled Whose Jizz Is This?

At the Kampnagel Summer Festival, Peaches’ futuristic stage happening Thereโ€™s Only One Peach With The Hole In The Middle celebrated its world premiere. This production
featured 16 dancers, a 12 piece orchestra, special guests, and a fully redesigned stage and light extravaganza.

There’s Only One Peach… played at Royal Festival Hall (London,UK), Musikhuset Aarhus (Aarhus, DK), and Volksbรผhne (Berlin, DE).

Peaches only continues to break new ground. In 2020 her seminal album The Teaches of Peaches turned 20, which NPR says fundamentally “shifted the window for sex in pop.” In a viral moment, Dave Grohl & Greg Kurstinโ€™s 2020 Hanukkah Sessions sparked delight with a Grohl/Peaches duet of โ€œFuck The Pain Away.โ€

She released the kinetic โ€œFlip This,โ€ which Rolling Stone said โ€œchallenges status quo and calls for systemic change.โ€

2021 saw her influence only further manifest. Peaches released the delightfully subversive โ€œPussy Mask.โ€ โ€œThe perfect releaseโ€ (Paper) was hailed by critics, including Stereogum who said it โ€œcombines her inimitable political critique, ribald wordplay, and
enveloping electro.”

She was also cited as the main inspiration for designer Anthony Vaccarelloโ€™s AW21 Saint Laurent collection and โ€œFuck The Pain Awayโ€ was used as a climactic moment in Netflixโ€™s Sex Education Season 3.

She celebrated the 48th anniversary of Roe v. Wade with friends Cyndi Lauper, Nona Hendyrx, Linda Perry, and
others on Amanda Shires’ “Our Problem.โ€

In January 2022, Peaches announced The Teaches of Peaches Anniversary Tour, kicking off in Vancouver, Canada on May 15. A celebration of the 20th anniversary of Peachesโ€™ seminal The Teaches of Peaches, she will be performing the album in its entirety across North America, Europe, the UK and in 2023, Australia & New Zealand!

In addition, Peaches is currently working on a brand- new album, with more details to come.
