        <p><span>If you keep up with pop music, you&rsquo;ve probably heard of Australian singer-songwriter Peach PRC. She&rsquo;s hard to miss wearing her signature all-pink style and cosmic-esque makeup looks, headlining festivals in Australia, the United Kingdom and Europe, and playing her solo shows. </span></p>
        <p><span>Born Sharlee Jade Curnow, the singer leads a double life with her musical alter ego Peach PRC, a moniker that allows Curnow some privacy when it comes to living with her new-found fame. &ldquo;I think we used to be the same person but I&rsquo;ve slowly begun separating them, mostly because I think it&rsquo;s fun and it makes me feel like Hannah Montana,&rdquo; she explains. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s actually quite hard having everything stripped back and on display like that with no privacy, so I leave the honesty for the music now, like a window, instead of having a whole front door open.&rdquo; </span></p>

        <p><span>With an active presence on social media, it&rsquo;s no surprise that Peach PRC has become one of the industry&rsquo;s rising </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">starlets in modern music, where she continues to showcase her talents in various genres like synthpop, electropop, and dance-pop.</span></p>
        <p><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">Since her debut, the artist has garnered a following of 284k on </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/peachprc" style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Instagram</a><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;"> and 2.2 million on </span><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@peachprc?lang=en" style="letter-spacing: 0px;">TikTok</a><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s a lot busier, but all the more rewarding,&rdquo; she says of her growing fame. &ldquo;I get recognised a lot, which is sweet, but it means that things like going to concerts and festivals aren&rsquo;t the same anymore. I have to find a place away from the crowd if I want to watch the performances or go in a full disguise. But then again, it&rsquo;s the &lsquo;Hannah Montana&rsquo; of it all and I can&rsquo;t complain.&rdquo;</span></p>

        <p><span>Influenced by artists from the early to mid-2010s like Katy Perry, Kesha, 3OH!3, and Carly Rae Jepsen, Peach PRC felt motivated to bring the light-hearted sound associated with that era back with her own music. &ldquo;It was just so fun,&rdquo; she says. &ldquo;I miss when pop was just silly and camp, and didn&rsquo;t </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">take itself so seriously.&rdquo; She&rsquo;s just put out her </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">Manic Dream Pixie </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit; letter-spacing: 0px;">EP, with its title coming from some of the lyrics in her track &ldquo;Heavy&rdquo;. The trope linked to the title itself is not something Peach PRC wishes for anyone to strive for, even though she resonated with it at one point in her life.</span></p>

              <p><span>&ldquo;She&rsquo;s a surface-level vessel for the male protagonist&rsquo;s own character development, but we never hear her story,&rdquo; she says. &ldquo;At the time, I felt like that&rsquo;s all I was for people, just character development but not someone worth investing in because I was a hard burden to bear.&rdquo; </span></p>

      <p><span>Through hardship and growth, Peach PRC has evolved to become a more confident person in her music and style; her all-pink look being one of the main things she&rsquo;s associated with. &ldquo;My style is obviously very pink and hyper-feminine,&rdquo; she says. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m not sure what genre I would even label it but I take inspiration from fantasy and girlhood, characters like Barbie, and Shirley Barber illustrations.&rdquo; </span></p>
      <p><span>When it comes to beauty, Peach PRC relies on one trusted product for her looks: pink lipstick, often doing full makeup looks with just that. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m also lucky to have had professional training in makeup,&rdquo; she adds. &ldquo;It was one of the many jobs I did before this. To me, more is always more.&rdquo; </span></p>
      <p><span>Besides headlining a festival in Sydney and having several gigs scheduled from now until the end of the year, Peach PRC aims to put out new music soon. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m working on so many new songs,&rdquo; she shares. &ldquo;I want to put an album out as soon as possible and start shooting all of these music video concepts I have!&rdquo; </span></p>
