Rob Smoughton is probably best known as a long-time member of Hot Chip and Scritti Politti, while his alter-ego Grovesnor has released a number of albums to critical acclaim.
Now he unveils his new band, Black Peaches.

Drawn from the swamp and the delta, the Peaches’ music is gloriously loose-limbed and strung-out, a psychotropic stew of country boogie, spiritual jazz and funk. With slide guitars, Latin percussion and shimmering keyboards, Black Peaches can at times sound like a bar fight, at others they swagger with the easy confidence of Little Feat, Manassas, or Dr John: a pulsating, unwinding groove for hot, dusty summer days where no-one is in too much of a hurry.
