Peace
Sun-drenched indie rock with shimmering guitars and euphoric choruses. It feels like the peak of a summer festival and the nostalgia of being young and restless.

Peace emerged as a central figure in the Birmingham-based 'B-Town' scene of the early 2010s, alongside peers like Swim Deep and Jaws. Formed by brothers Harry and Sam Koisser, the band quickly transitioned from local buzz to national acclaim with their 2012 'Delicious' EP.
Their sound identity is characterized by a fusion of post-punk atmosphere, psychedelic guitar textures, and the anthemic sensibilities of classic Britpop. Critically, they were often compared to a more hedonistic Vampire Weekend or a sunnier Foals, praised for their ability to balance indie-rock grit with high-gloss pop hooks. Over their career arc, they evolved from the raw energy of 'In Love' to the more polished, socially-conscious themes of 'Kindness Is the New Rock and Roll' and the independent, experimental spirit of 'Happy Cars'. They occupy a cultural space as a quintessential 'festival band', known for high-energy live performances that resonate with a nostalgic yet vibrant youth culture. Their influence is felt in the wave of melodic, guitar-driven UK indie that followed the mid-2010s.
