Peaches (the artist, not the fruit) launches new short film video

The original and the best bad-girl of the alt-music scene, Peaches (or Merrill Beth Nisker to her mother) has released the video for her track Show Stopper. The 11th track from her album I Feel Cream to get the extended video treatment (Mud is the only one waiting now), Show Stopper’s video is a kind of mockumentary about life on the road and a day in the life of Peaches, a notoriously difficult subject.

Following an unassuming massage therapist and her ill-fated massage table, director Caroline Sascha Cogez (Dancer In The Dark) sheds a kooky light on the enigma that is Peaches with the standout line coming from the woman herself after being asked by a male journalist whether or not she’s a lesbian: “Sometimes. Are you?”

With the track almost being secondary to the clip, maybe Peaches is onto something with her approach to the music video. Check out her youtube channel for more.balloonbike
