Peer Pleasure, an emerging nine-piece band from Ireland, have announced their debut album ‘Unvetted Males’ alongside the release of their new single, ‘Shed Residents’.
Formed by Brandon Murphy, Conor Kavanagh, Cein O’Dowd, Erik Murphy, Jeff Miller, Joel Pitcher, James O’Neill, and brothers Eoghan and Oisin Conroy, Peer Pleasure share members with Pants On Fire, The Donnys, and Bad Mothers Union.
