The Peach Tree is the solo project of musician/writer/producer Angus Maiden. He believes in freedom of copyable information and encourages everyone to download and share his tracks for free.

The project began circa 2003 as school friends Angus Maiden and Michael Cooney's concept of a band; a band that would break genre barriers and reach across the music spectrum to touch a whole host of different individuals. The duo began writing songs together after they finished school and practised sporadically, but the dream of being up there on stage delivering their message always seemed faraway.

From 2003 to 2006 the two kept their dream that they would form a "proper" band and start delivering their songs to local audiences. They continued to jam and officialy recruited new members, but never fully coalesced into a cohesive entity. Members of the "band" at one point reached 5 members: Cooney (guitar, vocals), Gus (guitar, vocals), Erin (bass), Sarah (synth, piano) and Bourkey (drums), but as people do, they all led busy lives and slowly, they dispersed

Thus The Peach Tree morphed into Angus' own solo project, and he has released five albums and two EPs to date under the name. His sound derives from the massive range of influences he is exposed to, and includes everything from pop melodies to dance tracks, death metal epics, and rockin' blues tracks.

I empathise deeply with your "band." Even the timing is freakish... keep it up though. You've got some material there that is really worth doing properly (not being degrading). You seem into music enough to warrant some singing lessons. I think compositionally you're going where you want to go but with some better execution you'll have a few more options on your production... that's my personal experience though... but if you listen to my Apparently Human stuff verses the dead turtles you'll hear the difference lessons can make... not that I'm a hotshot but I'm happy(er)... At times some of your lyrics really warrant more space. You're not dribbling shit and the contrast of letting some good vocals go and the music coming back in will reinforce that... blahblahblah from jimmy

Hey your music is quite reminiscent of Jean Michelle Jarre, he had a great album Oxygene! Even a bit of Vangelis thrown in also, especially in the vocal tracks mixing in with the ambience of the music eg how he did it in Somehow I'll find My Way Home (his hit after Chariots of Fire). Thanks for the thoughtful review, Ruby Rose (and FireSkye crew)
