Peaches In Wonderland

Gerhard Behnke: Folk Rock with southern accent

Singer-Songwriter from the most southbound Germany: Gerhard Behnke writes his own music for more than 10 years. Captivated by musicians as James Taylor, Neil Young, Tom Petty and the Beatles he feels closely connected to “classical songwriting”. His first stay in the US in 1995 became to a crucial experience: the creative musical scene inspired him writing his first own songs. From there it was just a stone’s throw from publishing own music on a record.

With their original compositions Peaches In Wonderland combine timeless folk with rock’n’roll licks in particular and are modeling their own and personal style. The guitar sounds from Oliver Droese became the band’s hallmark: They fit the songs perfectly and give the melodies a special recognition value. The songs are played with a lot of lucency and profoundness without vasting one single note! The sound is straight honest and isn’t hiding behind effect walls.

Peaches In Wonderland are one of the bands in the area demonstrating musical continuity. The band is stilistically cutting its own path.

Peaches In Wonderland was founded in 1999. The first album "Stream Of Life" was published in 2001, the second album "Back On My Track" was released in January 2009.
