Born in Yorkshire in 2006 Raw Peaches were formed by Jake Waddington with students at Leeds College of music and have been forging a solid name for themselves in Yorkshire and as far afield as Michigan, USA; releasing their first eponymous EP and winning the award for North Yorkshire's best unsigned band in 2010. After being joined by Oli Jenkins on bass in March 2011, Raw Peaches went on to play numerous highly acclaimed gigs and festivals culminating in winning Leeds' best unsigned band, sponsored by Jack Daniels in mid 2011.
Currently expanding their influence and attempting to gain wider audience and recognition, Raw Peaches are now gigging in the South East and London. Keep an eye on this entertaining and exciting act who have been described by those who've seen them as 'the best band on the scene'.
