Zest Hope Successes

Everyone loves to say they were a fan of ‘insert artist name here’ before they were famous, right? Well, if that’s the case then ‘Heard it Hear First’, terrible pun aside, is your go to destination to discover your new favourite act and keep up to date with the latest and most exciting emerging artists currently on the scene.

Today you can say you heard ‘Mmm, Nectarines” by Zest Hope Successes here first!

ZEST HOPE SUCCESSES IS A DREAMY COLOURFUL EXPLOSION OF GUITARS & CATCHY MELODIES. IMAGINE A KALEIDOSCOPE OF BANDS SUCH AS FLAMING LIPS, PAVEMENT, PIXIES, DEATH CAB, REM, MERCURY REV, MBV, SUPER FURRIES & YO LA TENGO AND YOU’RE HEADING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

ZHS BEGAN AS A SOLO PROJECT BY NICK PEERS, (ALSO GUITARIST IN SEA NOISE & SILENT ROCKETS).  LIVE, HE IS VERY LUCKY TO BE AIDED BY THREE VIRTUOSIC MUSICIANS WHO HELP HIM RECREATE THESE COLOURFUL LEFTFIELD POP SONGS.

THE NAME CAME ABOUT WHEN NICK (JUST FOR FUN) VISITED A FORTUNE-TELLER IN A BERLIN MARKET. AS HE WAS LEAVING, THE OLD LADY TOLD HIM THAT SUCCESS WOULD ONLY COME IF HE SOUGHT ZEST & HOPE.

LIFE IS A MANY-SPLENDOURED THING!
