PEACHES ...reburns to whip it hot!

So tickets are slipping along as the Peach draws closer for a frenzy of whipped cream... as she unleashes her own headline shows around the BDO on us! DO NOT MISS THIS!!

Joining Peaches for these upcoming club shows will be SHUNDA K from the USA (www.shundak.com http://www.shundak.com/ www.myspace.com/yomajesty4life ) - the down n' dirty, ruff n' ready, Lord and lady-loving original voice of Yo! Majesty (and will also perform Billionaire live with Peaches at the club and some of the BDO shows); QUAN THE AMATEUR as in Yeomans ala Regurgitator for his electro-hiphop reassembly line touting new remix ep Gimme Gimme and sneakerhead dolls (www.quantheamateur.com http://www.quantheamateur.com/ )... Since her debut DJ show tour late 2009 and her previous late 2008 visit to NZ and Australia (for Parklife)... Peaches has not stood still for a second in 2009! Early that year she released her 4th studio album I Feel Cream to wide critical acclaim (Rolling Stone said, "Peaches bawdy pop feels like a refreshing breath of filthy air."), was given mad props from Perez Hilton, toured the US to sold-out houses, touring all over the world and set out to release a video for every track from I Feel Cream. Peaches is not done yet.

And in keeping with Peaches plan the most recent video for RELAX featured on her BLOG http://www.peachesofficialblog.com/blog/ in the past week or so... and coming shortly MOMMY COMPLEX. Peaches set off on her 2nd US tour in late 2009 to support I Feel Cream... with an all new show!! The dates kicked off in Las Vegas and wound up in Los Angeles for a show at The Wiltern on November 28. Next on the list is Australia and New Zealand as part of the 2010 Big Day Out tour plus...
