Canadian recording artist Peaches (aka Merrill Nisker) dabbled in a wide variety of musical styles including folk, avant jazz and noise rock before finding her niche as dirty-mouthed electro provocateur. Her 2000 debut album 'The Teaches of Peaches' featured a barrage of filthy, tongue-in-cheek raps over a mix of throbbing disco beats and corrosive rock guitar that quickly found an audience in adventurous dance clubs.

Peaches quickly became the poster girl for the emerging electro-clash movement with her confrontational and libidinous stage shows and catchy anthems (the titles of which are mostly unprintable on a family Web site). Having opened with mixed results for rocker Josh Homme's band Queens of the Stone Age at the Fillmore, Peaches returns the favor by inviting Homme's raunchy side project the Eagles of Death Metal out on the road as the support act. With the guitarist ably switching to drums behind ridiculously over-the-top frontman Jesse Hughes, EoDM deliver lusty go-go rock that should warm up the crowd nicely. Burning Brides (Saturday only) and Mickey Avalon (Sunday only) open the two shows.
