"Before Call Display" single and video released by Peach on a beach

 

I invite you to listen to my third single "Before Call Display".

The song is inspired from an epic prank phone call session I orchestrated with my brother during our early teens circa 1984. One day after school while our mom was working, we called ~ 10 taxicabs, pizza shops, Chinese take-outs and a bottle exchange, then watched them all arrive across the street at the neighbour's house.

Music video released for "Pizza Corner!


The official video for my second single "Pizza Corner" was released on Friday, February 24, 2023. The song is a hip-hop tribute to all the blurry late nights I spent at the iconic downtown Halifax landmark during the 1990s. 

Video created by Shawn Bourque, Greenlight Studios

Video filmed at Pizza Corner, Halifax, NS and Wissam's Pizza in Meteghan River (Clare), during the morning of the coldest day of the decade. Lead vocals, music, and lyrics by Larry Peach. Backing vocals by Joelle Peach. Additional ad lib vocals by Patrick Carr and Paul Morris. Liquor Dome Atrium clip of cover band (Mind over Matter) by Richard. For full video from 1991. Video actors: Bradley Gavel, as the sidekick, musician in Soon After Joelle Peach aka "the momager" Sherisse, for bringing the sass Wissam as himself, supreme maker of amazing donairs and pizza and Larry Peach, as a washed up version of himself.

Many thanks et mille merci!

"Pizza Corner" is also available on streaming platforms:

Spotify

Apple Music

iTunes

Bandcamp

The playful lyrics recall how we gravitated to “Pizza Corner” during the 1990s to grab a pepperoni slice or a super donair, to people watch, and compare notes after a night on the town. 

The intended market is primarily Gen Xers, but also other generations who spent copious amounts of time downtown during the heyday of Pizza Corner.

Thanks to The Music Box Recording Studio in Clare for the great mix and master!
