Peach Tree Rascals

The group formed as a group of friends in high school, with many of them being second-generation children of immigrants.[6][7][8][9] Pech moved to Khaliq's and Pizano's high school and became a part of their friend group, creating CD's and inspiring the group to create music.[3][10] A week before their release of "Glide," the group were camping trying to figure out a name, to which Olabaza suggested "Peach Tree Village." Pech suggested that "village" be replaced with "rascals."[11] The group began releasing music in 2018 with the debut single "Glide."[12][13]

The group returned in 2019 with the single "Plus,"[14][15] moving in together.[16] On August 27, 2019, the group released the song "Mariposa," which went viral on TikTok, being used for more than 1.6 million videos.[11][16]

In 2020, they were signed to 10K Projects and released the single "Deer."[17] In August 2020, the group moved to Los Angeles and released an acoustic version of "Mariposa."[16][18]

The group has been described as mixing alternative jazz, funk, and hip hop with inspiration from Kendrick Lamar, Frank Ocean, the Beatles, and John Mayer.[9][12][19][20]
