Breakout TikTok sensation Peach PRC today announces her signing to Republic Records and Island Records Australia with the release of her debut single ‘Josh’.

The self-proclaimed “girly camp pop” track is a joy from beginning to end, with razor sharp lyrics, super sweet melodies with touches of synthpop and hints of the 1990s. The track is inspired from a real life situation of an ex who just wouldn’t go away” ‘I thought you were blocked / Fuck off, stop calling me Josh,” she sings.

“I’ve been wanting to put out this song forever,” she reveals. “It’s very special to me, because it captured a real moment. I was a bit down when I was writing one day. My ex, Josh, kept calling me over and over again. He called all of the time, because he was trying to get back with me. I thought I had blocked him though. Since he didn’t stop bothering me, I wrote the song about him. It’s a true story, but it’s still meant to be fun and colourful.”

Peach PRC first started her TikTok page in 2019, posting funny moments, self-care advice and music. She currently has 1.2 million followers and a snippet of her first single ‘Blondes’ went viral in 2019 with the full version eventually amassing 4 million Spotify streams. The follow-up, 2020’s ‘Colourblind’ racked up 1.5 million Spotify streams, leading to her signing with a major record label.
