We’ve reviewed both of Peach and Quiet’s first two albums, tracing a trajectory from country rock and Americana on the debut through to a slightly rockier harder-edged sophomore effort in ‘Beautiful Thing’. Jonny Miller is one half of the duo partner Heather Read and he’s shared some of his favourite players who may not be too well known in the UK as well as a thank you to the people who make the noise in support of their beliefs.

Sage McBride –

Co-leader of everyone’s (in Canada at least!) favourite party band, Shred Kelly, and world class grant writer, who helped us get over many music industry challenges in 2023, and even showed up with her family when we were playing in her home town. What a rock star, thank you!

Shred Kelly –  

A super fun, and majorly groovy, band who have also become friends of ours, for coming back to Pender Island (with original hipster icons Elliot Brood) to regale us all with their super shaking songs, and also for staying at our humble abode, sharing road stories, and good food.

Clark Becker –   

Drummer extraordinaire, and true friend, who came and stayed with us for a week and graced us with his amazing rhythm skills, allowing us to take flight (in our living room) and sound more like our recordings. What a treat. We love you brother!

Ira Smolkin –

Guitar picker, singer of songs, and friend to many, who sadly left us all on Nov. 23rd, 2023. We give thanks for having him in our lives, briefly as it was. Safe travels to the home of love, see you on the flip side.

Anyone and everyone who stood up for the environment, peace, and the truth –

Keep up the good work, we need you now more than ever!
