Peach Pit

Currents

Tame Impala ·2015

"Yeah, so I think my favorite track on this record is 'Yes, I'm changing.' This is one of my all-time favorite records."

Back In Black

AC/DC ·1980

"Yeah, immediately went to the library after seeing the movie and I took out Back in Black."

High Voltage

AC/DC ·1976

"Funny now thinking about it. I was like nine listening to giving the dog a bone and just being like this is a sick song about dogs."

Down On the Upside

Soundgarden ·1996

"My guitar teacher showed me this when I was 12 years old. It really has stuck with me. So, Soundgarden, Down on the Upside. The entire first half of this record are all 10 out of 10 songs."

Picture You Staring

TOPS ·2014

"This record came out just after we started Peach Pit. Originally, we found out about TOPS because our friend Lester... showed us TOPS. Ever since then we've been huge fans of TOPS."

Labi Siffre

Labi Siffre ·1970

"Yeah, we actually covered one of his songs on our most recent deluxe version we put out for our record, Magpie. We covered a song called Crying, Laughing, Loving by him. It's like one of the most beautiful songs ever written."

Chaos For The Fly

Grian Chatten ·2023

"I just recently listened to it and thought it was amazing. It's definitely different from Fontaine's. It's like kind of his own thing, but it's really amazing. This song Bob's Casino on this album is my favorite."

Ram

Paul McCartney & Linda McCartney ·1971

"My friend Connor introduced me to this album and it just became like an instant classic and favorite. We did like a writing retreat a few years back... Mikey put it on in the background while we were just like hanging out in the evening and didn't like say anything about it and I was like, 'What is this?' He's like, 'Oh, it's Ram.' And I'd never heard of it before. Yeah. We became obsessed."

The Last Waltz

The Band ·1978

"Yeah, The Last Waltz. It's just like a big compilation album. If you haven't seen it, it's just a great documentary about the band playing their last performance by Martin Scorsese, Eric Clapton, Neil Diamond, Bob Dylan, Emmy Lou Harris, Dr. John."

songs

Adrianne Lenker ·2020

"Maybe not even the hottest take, but I just feel like this is some of the best songwriting of this decade. Adrien Lanker kind of scratches an itch that no one else can for me unless they were writing songs in like the '60s, you know? It's like the Leonard Cohens or the Bob Dillons and she's right up there with those guys for me."

Carrie & Lowell

Sufjan Stevens ·2015

"All of us really love Sufjan Stevens. This came out kind of in the early days of our band when we lived in a house together. And I remember one night we were down in the basement of the house where I lived and we were having a party... I remember the party kind of just like ended sort of abruptly for no reason... we realized that at around 11:00 Chris had decided to put on Carrie & Lowell, which is one of the more depressing albums that you could ever listen to. Very beautiful and amazing."

#1 Record

Big Star ·1972

"Yeah, it's been influential for the band and it's something I still go to regularly."

Is This It

The Strokes ·2001

"Is This It was probably the first record that maybe you and I bonded over as kids... This was like our all-time record, I think, between the two of us."

Short n' Sweet

Sabrina Carpenter ·2024

"I have been listening to this kind of like secretly and not really telling the guys that I've been listening. But it's a guilty pleasure. The production on this album is crazy as well. It's just all the songs sound so good."

YOU'LL HAVE TO LOSE SOMETHING

SPIRIT OF THE BEEHIVE ·2024

"This is a really cool record. These guys are like crazy making just like such interesting music. I specifically chose it because of one song, one 500th. This song is hands down one of the best songs I've heard in the last few years."
