PEACHES EXTENDS HER TRIUMPHANT GLOBAL "THE TEACHES OF PEACHESANNIVERSARY TOUR" TO NEW ZEALAND IN 2023!
“Godmother to “WAP”” (CBC), feminist icon and pop provocateur Peaches’ returns with an additional leg of The Teaches of Peaches Anniversary Tour after a string of wildly successful, sold-out shows across North America, Europe and the UK. A celebration of the 20th anniversary of Peaches’ seminal The Teaches of Peaches, she will be performing the album in its entirety across Australia and New Zealand including Mona Foma and World Pride festival dates. In addition, Peaches is currently working on a brand-new album, with more details to come.
At her live performances, Peaches turns the stage into her personal playground. With outrageous costuming and provocative choreography, The Guardian calls her shows a “joyous, gender-mashing cabaret” and “a dazzling mix of ingenuity and high drama.”
Peaches says of the upcoming tour, “So incredibly happy to announce the continuation of The Teaches of Peaches Anniversary Tour into 2023! I can’t wait to celebrate, with you all, 20 years of and reimagine the power that is The Teaches of Peaches album live across Australia and New Zealand. We’re ready for you down under!!!! Show us your map of Taz cuz I’m about to give you everything I’ve got! It’s been a while! Let’s set it off!”
Peaches’ domination over pop culture cannot be understated, with her aesthetic providing the main influence for designer Anthony Vaccarello’s AW21 Saint Laurent collection, and her songs featured in iconic TV moments in Netflix’s Sex Education, Aisling Bea’s This Way Up, and Showtime’s critically-acclaimed Yellowjackets. An emblematic 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 that’s opened the doors for countless others to follow. Across artistic mediums, 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.
