Peach Pit, an indie pop band hailing from Vancouver, Canada, has captured a loyal following with their unique blend of smooth, melancholic melodies and vivid storytelling. Formed in 2016, the group consists of Neil Smith (guitar/vocals), Christopher Vanderkooy (guitar), Peter Wilton (bass), and Mikey Pascuzzi (drums). They found their footing with the release of their breakthrough single, "Peach Pit," which led to their debut EP "Sweet FA" in 2016.

Their sound, often described as "chewed bubblegum pop," is characterized by its laid-back, jangly guitar riffs and wistful lyricism. Peach Pit's first full-length album, "Being So Normal," arrived in 2017, and featured fan-favorite tracks like "Tommy's Party" and "Alrighty Aphrodite." This was followed by their successful sophomore effort "You and Your Friends" in 2020, which included catchy tunes such as "Black Licorice" and "Shampoo Bottles," further solidifying their presence in the indie music scene. The band's growth continued with the release of "From 2 to 3" in 2022, showcasing a more mature sound while still delivering the charming and introspective storytelling that fans have grown to adore.
