Peaness

Formed late 2014 in Chester university digs, the three-piece band Peaness write catchy, fuzzy, harmony driven indie-pop songs about love, friendship, frustrations, Brexit and food waste. 

To celebrate the long-awaited release of debut album, the trio are embarking on a UK tour including their biggest Manchester headline show to date on 28 October.
