FATHER OF PEACE

Father Of Peace was formed in 2023 by Avshalom Ariel (vocals & guitar) and Tom Bollig (vocals & drums), who have been best friends since childhood.

In 2024, the duo debuted with their first single, “Escapism,” which was followed by three more songs from their debut album, *The Year Of Madness*—including the fan favorite “Enemy”—when the album was released in September of that year. Their diverse influences—which even extend to genres like jazz and metal—along with their progressive approach led to early comparisons with bands like System of a Down, The Mars Volta, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

In the summer of 2025, Father Of Peace released the two singles “Heaven” and “No Complaints” and embraced a new visual aesthetic reminiscent of mystical tarot cards and medieval woodcuts. With the addition of May Alpert (vocals & bass) in November 2025, Father Of Peace evolved from a duo into a trio, which has since continued to expand its sound. The first result of this collaboration is the single “Bluish,” released in late January, which complements the band’s playful indie sound with groovy and catchy basslines as well as the bassist’s vocals.
