Johanna Stahr will be supporting us on Sat April 10th at The Winchester. Johanna is a locally based singer/songwriter - visit her myspace site here. This will be the first gig with our new line up and we are excited about how things are developing with Jon and Rob. The Peachy sound has changed subtly from our previous line up and it promises to be an exciting evening. We are working hard at getting together a good number of popular covers songs as well as working on our original material. We will be releasing online a new song at the begining of March, which is a more mellower sound than some of our other songs. The song is called Drive Away the Dark and we hope to have it available for download on iTunes and Napster soon along with some of our other songs.

We are continuing to write new material and are adding new songs to our reportoire quite regularly as well as new covers. We also maybe recording a live album at some point over the summer although this is to be confirmed.

Peachy Jane would like to welcome Rob Haines as our new drummer

"Based now in Southampton, but I grew up in the Bournemouth area. I started playing in rock bands while still at school. At seventeen I went on the road with a gothic-rock band called "Bram Stoker". Various bands and projects followed, embracing a wide variety of music, including jazz, funk, rock, pop, country and disco music. For many years I toured Europe, Rob HainesScandinavia, Far East, Middle East and India in a hard-working covers band. Travelling is another one of my passions - I have an adventurous spirit and love to visit new places.

I enjoy most styles of music. I like the melodic pop/rock and harmonies of bands like The Eagles and Fleetwood Mac. I appreciate the smooth jazz of George Benson and find Latin rhythms interesting. However, a drum kit is not an instrument to be "tickled" - it needs to be played. Rock music gives me that opportunity to stretch out and have fun!" - Rob Haines
