Peach Fuzz – Old News: Jangly Indie-Rock with Heart and Heat from Melbourne

Why it is trending: Peach Fuzz’s “Old News” is gaining traction across Australia’s indie scene thanks to its shimmering guitars, soaring dual vocals, and that perfect balance of nostalgic charm and fresh, emotionally charged songwriting.

Peach Fuzz are a four-piece from Melbourne (Naarm) steadily carving out their space in the country’s thriving indie-rock landscape. Made up of Ben La (guitar & vocals), Lucinda Gray (vocals), Lewis Rich (bass) and James La (drums), the band fuse jangly guitar textures with punchy rhythms and harmonised vocals that feel both intimate and anthemic. Their sound blends the grit of garage rock with sun-soaked melodies, drawing comparisons to The Moving Stills, The Belair Lip Bombs, Teenage Dads, and Hallie. With a growing reputation for tight live sets and hook-heavy songwriting, Peach Fuzz are quickly becoming one to watch in the next wave of Aussie indie.

“Old News” captures the band’s knack for turning reflective themes into infectious, guitar-driven anthems. The track rides on bright, chiming riffs and dynamic vocal interplay, building toward a chorus that feels tailor-made for crowded rooms and late-night drives. Lyrically, it explores the sting of repetition and emotional déjà vu — when something once urgent becomes yesterday’s headline. With its mix of warmth and edge, “Old News” proves Peach Fuzz aren’t just revisiting indie traditions — they’re refreshing them with their own sunlit spin.
