Demos by Peebls

Peebls is a collaborative music and art project oriented towards producing “intersectional feminist propaganda music for children of all ages.” Peebls grew from a classroom setting that served as an introduction to stand-point feminism and engaged pedagogy starting in the Spring of 2015 in Philadelphia. These political and ideological positions are inherently practice-based, so the group employs a prefigurative politics in order to literally un-form, form again, and reform what is already at hand. This ethic and aesthetic guides everything from their approach to creating music, videos and costumes, to, the maintenance of their working relationships, and their continued unlearning of oppressive behaviors and relearning of liberatory practices.

The group is composed of artists Joanna Bellettiere, Teresa Cervantes, Maia Chao, Filipe de Sousa, Jorge Galvan, Maria Leguizamo, Lisi Raskin, Kelsey Skaroff, Daniel Stern, and Daniel Zentmeyer. Working from Providence, Philadelphia, New York, and Bogota they are motivated by the desire to sneak “into the mainframe and rearrange the brain of the world and ourselves.”

This demo features 8/more songs Peebls have written and recorded since 2015. All proceeds go to mastering these demos and more.
