“THEY’VE ONLY GONE AND MADE THE BEST ALBUM OF THE YEAR” – NME, MARCH 2013.
One of the UK’s most exciting new bands, rock quartet Peace, is gearing up to tour Australia for the first time, playing east coast shows throughout September. Being nominated as BBC’s Artist of 2013 and NME’s Best New Band is just a start for these four young upstarts from Birmingham.
Peace released their debut album, In Love, in March 2013. The album was produced by Jim Abiss (of Adele and Arctic Monkeys fame). The recording is a meticulously crafted collection of riff-based pop and heart wrenching ballads that stands in a spectacular lineage of British greats.
Having developed their stage presence plugging away in Birmingham, playing gigs for their friends and causing havoc in the local indie discos, the foursome will be performing at major festivals across the globe including Glastonbury, T in The Park, Summersonic, Reading and Leeds, Electric Picnic and Bestival before taking their sound to Australian audiences.

“Laidback tunes that bear the fingerprints of The Stone Roses, Oxford’s late-’80s shoegazers Ride and even The Beach Boys…while putting Peace’s own hypnotically chiming, cosmic-psych spin on things.” – THE FADER
