Peaches in Prague

Peaches is the stage name of Canadian electronic musician and performance artist Merrill Nisker, who was born in Toronto and became closely associated with Berlin’s electroclash scene. Her stripped-down electronic beats, punk delivery and sexually explicit writing reached a wide audience through the album The Teaches of Peaches and the song “Fuck the Pain Away”; later releases include Fatherfucker, Impeach My Bush and Rub. In 2022, Peaches mounted The Teaches of Peaches Anniversary Tour, revisiting the record that established her solo work. The production travelled through North America and Europe and reached London’s Royal Festival Hall, where Peaches performed with musicians and dancers as part of the album’s anniversary celebration.
