After 5 years, 9 LPs, and 4 EPs of completely free
music, Angus Maiden aka. The Peach Tree has released
his 10th self-titled concept album through his new net
label Tribal Dancing Kid. Over the years, Angus has
forged a distinctive path of genre-blurring,
tag-defying art complete with a cute out-of-tune voice
that either captivates or repels audiences.

THE PEACH TREE
After 5 years, 9 LPs, and 4 EPs of completely free
music, Angus Maiden aka. The Peach Tree has released
his 10th self-titled concept album through his new net
label Tribal Dancing Kid. Over the years, Angus has
forged a distinctive path of genre-blurring,
tag-defying art complete with a cute out-of-tune voice
that either captivates or repels audiences.
