Peach PRC is levelling up… again. With her biggest Australian shows to date looming in March on her ‘Wandering Spirit’ tour, the pop disruptor is stepping confidently into a new era, one that’s glittery, grounded, and defiantly hers.
A huge part of that evolution is latest single “Miss Erotica”, a euphoric love letter to the showgirls she worked alongside in her early adulthood. Reclaiming that history — skin, sweat, sequins and all — was important to her.
Peach remembers sitting in Los Angeles writing songs about the club that skewed towards sad, dwelling on hardship and struggle. But that didn’t tell the full truth.
“There were so many positive moments,” she says. “I loved performing and I loved the sisterhood… I used to put on the most bubblegum-pop/girl-pop songs to strip to, and everyone hated that about me.”
She wanted a song she would’ve danced to back then, “a nice little nod to something that shaped me.”
That idea — joy reclaimed, power reclaimed — drives the whole project. The strip club, Peach explains, wasn’t just survival — it was training.
“I learned how to captivate an audience… making sure everyone in that room wants you,” she says. “They’re really good at holding attention.”
Today, Peach still carries those instincts onstage. “I still find myself now when I perform moving the way that I did… it’s just so ingrained in me.”
And yes, the pole is still part of the show. “I always have the pole up with me,” she laughs. “I love having that little moment where I get to feel like I’m in the club again.”
The “Miss Erotica” music video cranks the fantasy to eleven — a neon wonderland of queer glam and mystical creatures that gleefully flip the script on desire.
“I really wanted something that was through my lens… the guys in the club expecting it to be for him,” Peach says. “But he doesn’t see that we have this secret sisterhood going on. In the end, all he gets is a big horse body… me just being a big unicorn.”
Silly? Absolutely. Magical? Definitely. Subversive? Always.
This is only the first breadcrumb from Peach’s next chapter.
“’Miss Erotica’ is kind of a little peephole into what is to come,” she says. “There’s so much more that I want to say but I can’t yet… it will make more sense in the end.”
She’s spent recent months grounding herself — gardening and renovating her new home and disappearing into the bush, writing, filming, and dreaming under gum trees.
“I find a lot of inspiration for my music out there,” she says. “Nature’s been a big part of my creative process.”
These upcoming theatre shows give Peach more creative freedom than she’s ever had before — which she insists is nowhere near enough. “I have so much I want to do… I’m always having to scale ’em down,” she laughs. “The more the better.”
One thing she will promise? Bringing the pole back — properly.
“I’m going to step it up at the pole this time and do some crazy tricks on there,” she says.
Beyond that, Peach is teasing new songs, immersive energy, and an atmosphere where fans can show up exactly as they are. “I want people to come and have an experience with me… fun people to have fun with me having fun.”
And yes, a safe space. Always.
The Veronicas were the first to guide her through the chaos of life on the road, the cycle of endless travel, immune-system roulette, and mental burnout.
“I got quite burnt out and sick,” Peach admits. “They helped me a lot with keeping my mental health and physical health intact.”
Oh, and they passed along a game-changing revolution: beta blockers.
“I couldn’t perform without having bad anxiety and shaking… getting on beta blockers when I performed helped a lot.”
Peach has invited Maude Latour and Salty along for the ride; a move that’s part-passion, part-mission.
“Salty is so pop and so cutie, and I feel like we don’t have a lot of that in Australia,” Peach says. “I want to platform and showcase people doing stuff that I also like.”
And while these dates are metro-only for now, regional fans may not have to wait forever.
“Yeah, I’d love to tour regionally again,” she teases. “We’ll have to see what happens next year.”
