The Peach Fuzz

Hotly-tipped Liverpool indie/alt-pop band returned in 2021 with their single “Never Wanna See The Light”, offering a perfect slice of summer indie pop as the nation came out of lockdown.

They followed it up with the more introspective “Afterglow”. The song represents the shiny and slick reflections of midnight machinery in the oily waters of New Brighton pier, a lingering effect left long after leaving someone’s company.

With the same duo at the helm of Bill Ryder Jones, (The Coral) on production duties, and Tom Longworth mixing, yet a very different sound, it shows the wide band of sounds and emotions they are able to capture.

Formed in Liverpool in 2018, the band have been building a steady following ever since. Their single “The Outside Looking In” is a massive hit, having clocked up 1.5 million streams and counting. It is clear their fans are still right with them too, after a number of sold out shows over the summer. They have had big support from BBC Radio 1, Introducing, & 6 Music, and have been playlisted on Radio X and XS noise. They have toured supporting The Zutons, Clean Cut Kid, and The Vryll Society.

The band are set to release an EP in 2022, with BBC Introducing Northwest picking the band as their one to watch for 2022.
