The Moldy Peaches Announces Comeback at Brooklyn Steel

NYC anti-folk heroes The Moldy Peaches announced their triumphant return to the live stage after 20 years at Brooklyn Steel. 

Prior to their performance at the Brooklyn Steel, the band announced their first European show in 20 years, with a date at London’s Roundhouse and performances at Primavera Sound Barcelona. 

The Moldy Peaches

The Moldy Peaches was established in the mid-90s by Adam Green and Kimya Dawson in New York City. The indie band popularized “anti-folk” music that brought quirky, lo-fi punk elements into the music scene. What began as a duo soon transformed into a six-member band with members such as Brent Cole, Jack Dishel, Toby Goodshank, and Steven Mertens joining. In 2001, the band released their debut album, The Moldy Peaches on Rough Trade Records. Recognized for their sense of humor, whimsy and self-deprecation, the debut album featured gems like “Downloading Porn With Dave” and “Who’s Got The Crack.” In 2002, the group separated to work on solo projects.

Last year, founding members Kimya Dawson and Adam Green played their first show together in 11 years. The two performed together for a premiere of the documentary Meet Me In The Bathroom, inspired by Lizzy Goodman. When asked about upcoming events the band said, “We’re excited to be back, older, and moldier. Let’s see if we still got it! Once a Moldy Peach, always a Moldy Peach.”

Presale tickets for the show will be available February 15 via Amex. General tickets will be available for purchase on February 17th. More information about The Moldy Peaches can be found here.
