Since 2009's I Feel Cream, Peaches has been expanding her artistic horizons, appearing in productions including Peaches Christ Superstar, her one-woman take on Jesus Christ Superstar, and Peaches Does Herself, a futuristic rock opera about her rise to fame. Now, she's announced a new album, Rub, recorded last year in L.A. with Vice Cooler. It's out September 25 on I U She Music via INgrooves, and there's a North American tour to support it. Check the dates and album tracklist below, along with Peaches' self-directed video for "Light in Places", which features UK performance artist/aerialist Empress Stah and her pioneering "laser butt plug" show.
Guests on the LP include Peaches' longtime collaborator Feist, who sings on "I Mean Something", and Kim Gordon, who speak-sings a hook on "Close Up", as Gordon revealed on Marc Maron's podcast earlier this year.
Ahead of the record, Peaches will also release What Else Is In The Teaches Of Peaches, a photo book with Holger Talinski, documenting her extracurricular work over the last decade. That includes the leading role in a Berlin production of L'Orfeo, Monteverdi's 17th-Century opera; collaborations with Yoko Ono, Le Tigre, and R.E.M; and the theater productions mentioned above. That's out in June via Akashic Books.
