the "Best Blues Artist" category of the 2006 All Access Magazine
Music Awards, that took place in November 4 at the renowned Knitting
Factory in Hollywood.
PEACH fronts an all-star band consisting of keyboardist Ken
Stange (known for his work with the Dennis Quaid Band and Joe
Cocker, among others); drummer Tom Walsh (Joe Cocker); and bassist
Eric T. Ward (Marvin Gaye).
The Los Angeles-based PEACH has an impressive body of
recordings to her credit. THE REAL THING, released in 2005 and
produced by renowned studio ace, Marty Grebb (Etta James, The Band,
Bonnie Raitt), features a duet on the title track with Grammy
winner, Taj Mahal. Among the notable musicians (and the list is
large) who performed on THE REAL THING: Bassist Reggie McBride (Tony
Bennett, Keb' Mo'), backing PEACH as she serenades on "Beyond My
Wildest Dreams;" Garth Hudson (The Band) on keyboards, saxophone,
and accordion); James Gadson (The Temptations, Beck) and Gary
Mallaber (Van Morrison, Bruce Springsteen) on drums; the
aforementioned Martinez; Cece Worrall Rubin (Diana Ross, Guns n'
Roses) on baritone saxophone; Paul Barrere (Little Feat), Jon
Woodhead (Leon Russell), and Rick Vito (Fleetwood Mac), all on slide
guitar; Amos Garrett (Stevie Wonder, Maria Muldaur) on guitar; and
horn arrangement by Lee Thornburg (THE TONIGHT SHOW band, Tower of
Power) on "Someone Else Is Steppin' In."
PEACH is a dynamic live performer: "From the first note, the
band displayed their talents admirably," wrote Pat Benny in
SOUTHBOUND BEAT, reviewing a show at Martini Blues in Huntington
Beach. "One of the many highlights of the evening, "Angel From
Montgomery," belonged to PEACH. Her vocal rendition of the John
Prine song was appropriately moving…she has a gentle voice but is
capable of sustaining a note with ease. Her voice is unique for the
blues, and her original compositions and clever treatments of
classic material make listening to PEACH a pleasure," Benny
concluded.
PEACH is the co-founder of "Rock `n Cure," an annual event
she produces and performs in to benefit Cedar-Sinai Medical Center's
breast cancer and stem cell transplant research. The first "Rock `n
Cure" event at the House of Blues/L.A. – co-headlined by PEACH and
renowned blues band, The Delgado Brothers – raised $78,000.
