Description
Cult feminist musician and artist, Peaches exploded onto the music scene in 2000 with her punky, electroclash album The Teaches of Peaches and it’s standout hit 'F**k the Pain Away'. She’s been pushing the boundaries ever since, making genderqueer work that is sex and body positive and has led the way for successive generations of artists to diddle their skittles (hi Beyonce).
In this episode Jake speaks to Peaches about the making of 'F**k The Pain Away', her creative process, it's initial reception and what being a queer artist means to her.
