Peach Pit

The group formed when high school friends, Neil Smith and Chris Vanderkooy, decided to collaborate on a musical project in 2014. Peter Wilton and Mikey Pascuzzi joined them on bass and drums. In June 2016, the band released its debut EP, Sweet FA, produced and recorded by Smith's former roommate Harley Small at The Space Studios in Vancouver BC. They quickly began work on their follow up release and debut LP, Being So Normal. The album was again produced and recorded by Harley Small at The Space Studios and was released in September 2017 on the Vancouver indie label Kingfisher Bluez.

Vocalist/rhythm guitarist Neil Smith was formerly part of the folk band Dogwood and Dahlia. Smith and bassist Peter Wilton formerly worked as Amazon delivery drivers, guitarist Christopher Vanderkooy worked at a local Vancouver brewery, and drummer Mikey Pascuzzi worked as a carpenter. Following the success of their debut album, the band quit their jobs to go on their first tour of North America, Europe and Asia from 2017 to 2018. Peach Pit embarked on several tours, both nationally and internationally, to promote their music and connect with fans. They have performed at renowned festivals such as SXSW and Osheaga, and have shared the stage with notable acts like Mac DeMarco and Dayglow. They have been touring steadily ever since the release of their debut album.
