Electro-Punk Musician, Peaches

Thursday February 28, 2008

Not a lot of female performers feel as comfortable playing with gender as Peaches, a Canadian electro-punk musician.

As the website AfterEllen has said,

"Any doubts that Peaches is dedicated to turning gender on its head are put to rest by watching her belt out undeniably crass lyrics on stage while dressed in her trademark hot pants and go-go boots. Flanked by two gender-ambiguous dancers who resemble lanky drag queens but also at times sport jaunty red dildos, Peaches’ live performance is a queer-infused spectacle of sexual freedom and female power."
