''The Peel is its nest and we are its prey''

MAT. HOCKING

''The Peel Pub in Kingston has played heart to a thriving local music scene for many years, publicising and praising unrecognised talent in its infancy. Providing bands with support slots on the tail of better known groups, as well as rehearsal space and lots of advertising mean that bands respect and grow to love this maternal venue. I guess that’s why they play their hearts out whenever they perform there!''

ED. MELLETT

''The Peel plays host to plenty rock bands rather than run-of-the-mill, random music genres thrown together, we’ll-book-you-if-you-bring-20-mates venues. And for that, we salute it.''

ADIE. NUNN

''The Girls are lovely.
