Australian pop sensation Peach PRC has shared a new single, a bold love letter to the strip club and showgirls who raised her in her early adulthood, accompanied by a spectacular high-fantasy strip club fever dream video.
Written in LA with Ryan Linvill and Maya Kurchner, who have worked with the likes of Olivia Rodrigo and Role Model, and Chappell Roan and Oliver O’Brien, respectively, “Miss Erotica” ushers in a new and daring era for Peach PRC.
The new song once again re-writes the pop rule book, previewing what’s to come from the rising star — ambitious, bright, bold, and unapologetic celebration of empowerment, and artistry. It follows the release of “Sweet n’ Low” earlier this year, which has racked up over a million streams already.
Speaking of the single’s inspiration, Peach said she remembers watching the ‘Miss Nude Australia’ competition every year at her former workplace, the Crazy Horse.
“They taught me what it really means to put on a show,” she said. “There was fire breathing, ballet, acrobatics, arial – it was camp, it was theatric, it was a sequinned, rhinestone pageant show of some of the most beautiful and talented women I’d ever seen. The outside world had no idea about this underground competitive sport that I was privileged enough to witness.”
She said “Miss Erotica” is the kind of song she would’ve had in her playlist back then, “so I hope someone gets to throw ass to this song on a pole in a seedy underground club somewhere”.
Peach PRC collaborated with Brooklyn-based creative force and visionary filmmaker Maris Jones and producer Lavinia Jones Wright from I Play Different Productions to bring the love letter of “Miss Erotica” to life with a spectacular music video.

Together, the powerhouse female team delivered a rebellious, shimmering celebration of erotic performance, surreal queer glamour, with Peach PRC’s signature hyper-feminine universe with bold visual storytelling, along with the cinematic spectacle of centaurs, midnight ballerina’s and Peach PRC’s fantastical strip tease.
The latest single solidifies Peach PRC’s place in Australian pop. Across her discography, she boasts over 230 million streams, over 2 billion social views, and 27 million video views. She is still riding a high from her 2023 debut EP Manic Dream Pixie, which debuted at No. 1 on the ARIA Charts and amassed tens of millions of streams.
In 2024, she claimed the award for Best Single at the Rolling Stone AU/NZ Awards with “Perfect for You” beating out a strong list of releases by Amy Shark, Lime Cordiale, Fisher, Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers, and more to receive the honour.
