PEACHES IS BACK | No rules. No filters. Just pure Boomtown energy.

Peaches is coming back to Boomtown, and if you were there in 2023, you already know why this is such a big deal. 

Her last set was loud, sweaty, chaotic and completely unforgettable. It’s the kind of moment that lives on in Boomtown lore. For anyone who missed it, or anyone about to experience Peaches for the first time, here’s what you need to know.

Peaches, aka Merrill Nisker, is a Canadian electro‑punk icon who has been ripping up dancefloors and tearing down norms for over two decades. Her sound blends raw electronics, distorted synths and punk energy with lyrics that are funny, confrontational, sexual and fiercely empowering. Tracks like Fuck the Pain Away and Boys Wanna Be Her didn’t just become cult classics - they helped shape underground club culture built on freedom, rebellion and doing things your own way.

Live, Peaches is something else entirely. Her shows are theatrical, fearless and totally immersive, blurring the line between artist and crowd. 

Costumes, chaos, audience participation, nothing is off limits, and no two sets ever feel the same. It’s not about perfection, it’s about release.

That’s why we think she fits Boomtown so perfectly. 

Boomtown has always celebrated the weird, the bold and the unapologetically expressive, and Peaches embodies all of it. Her music and performances create a space where individuality, queerness and self‑expression aren’t just welcomed - they’re amplified.

Boomtown crowds don’t want safe or polished. They want artists who mean it, who bring energy, attitude and authenticity. Peaches gives permission to let go completely, whether that means dancing without inhibition, screaming lyrics with strangers, or feeling seen in a field full of people doing the same.

If you know, you know. And if you don’t, consider this your heads‑up. 

Peaches at Boomtown will be a moment you don’t want to miss!
