On this episode of SPIN Presents Lipps Service, Scott Lipps sits down with the iconic and boundary-breaking artist Peaches.
From singing at bar mitzvahs in Toronto to pioneering the electroclash movement, Peaches shares the full story behind her rise, including the cultural impact of “Fuck the Pain Away,” her years in Berlin, and working with legends like Iggy Pop.
They dive into her fearless approach to sexuality, gender, and performance art — and how her work pushed boundaries long before today’s conversations around identity and censorship.
Peaches also discusses her first album in over a decade, No Lube So Rude, why aging is her most radical act yet, and whether culture has become more restrictive.
Plus, a high-energy Top 5 covering artists, punk bands, and karaoke songs.
A raw, provocative, and deeply honest conversation with one of music’s true originals. #peaches #electro #live #top5 #cencorship #podcast #music
