The Guide caught up with Noam Levinberg from Nastypeach, a 9-piece band that plays a mix of Junk, Soul and Funk
The word "nasty" loses its menacing tone when it is attached to "peach", as we discovered when we got chatting with Noam Levinberg, Nastypeach's soundman and owner of Rightway-Records. This Tel Aviv-based band will be performing in the city this week. When we quizzed them on their quirky band name, Levinberg stated that it refers to a fiery drink. "We had a bet on who can survive only on this drink and Ben, the guitarist, lasted three months, so the name stuck."

Noam defines Nasty as a band that consists of good friends having fun making music out of different styles. And believe it or not, it is a 9-piece band that plays a mix of Junk, Soul and Rock.
Lately, they are working with world known producer Patrick Sebag (known for the Laya Project, Kartick & Gotam, Eti Ankri, Shirat Rabim, Peter Gabriel remixer) on a new full-length 12 song album due to be released by August 2010.
Their inspiration comes from a number of singers like John Mayer, Erica Badu and Jeremy Coulm. At HRC, they will mostly play originals and covers as well as a special track especially for India.
