‘Whiffing the Peaches” is an experimental Rock project from Cleethorpes, North East Lincolnshire, UK.
Initially a trio, the project was formed by three members of Grimsby Covers band, ‘Skip of Fools’ who wanted to write and perform their own ideas. Original members, Trev and Trish have since left the project to follow other opportunities.
Lyricist/Vocalist, Victoria Edwards is Ade’s current featured musician. Another “guest” is local guitarist, Keith Dillon.
WTP is NOT a gigging project.
The sole founder is Adrian White who is responsible for Multi Instruments/Mixing/Production/Backing Vocals + Video Scripts
I asked the Adrian to give us a quick Who/What/When and after months of deep thought and procrastination, this is what he came up with.
Adrian:
Where did it start? It was a case of thrown in at the deep end. Pete Fisk needed a bass player to go to Germany with him and I got the job despite never being on a stage before. With Pete there’s no messing about, two practices, one gig in Leicester and the next thing I knew I was going over the North sea to Rotterdam. I had bits of paper stuck all over the back of the PA with the notes jotted down, a sort of security blanket I guess. A great time ensued until, like all these things it eventually ended. I worked in various other projects.
One of the bands was “International Incident” that included Pedro Robinson. We did original stuff and that sort of stuck with me and I started writing.
Over the years there were a succession of bands but I preferred doing original material and with WTP’s that’s what I’m doing.
I’ve played in a few covers bands, and am still with Skip of Fools, but with this project, I can concentrate on recording my own songs.
Having great fun – that’s what it’s all about.
Currently, Ade is busy recording tracks for an album, to be released hopefully before *OH WELL*. Because the project is not a gigging outfit, Whiffing The Peaches write and record videos to accompany releases Links are on the Music & Video Page.
