Caleb Nichols Released New Single “Little Red Peugeot”

“Little Red Peugeot” is the new single by californian queer, non-binary musician and poet Caleb Nichols. It features Ellis Jones from Trust Fund and it is being released digitally today on Glasgow-based label Heavenly Creatures Records. For this single, which is available exclusively on Bandcamp for the first two weeks of release, Caleb is donating all proceeds, every dime that comes in, to Care For Gaza: a mutual aid fund that helps families in Palestine. “It’s really not much,” says Nichols, “but I hope we can pool our money and help a bit.”

“Little Red Peugeot” was recorded in Oakland, California at Brothers (Chinese) Recording. The track was engineered and mixed by Jay Pellicci. Aaron Kroeger played the drums, while John Metz (Caleb’s partner) played the bass. Ellis Jones sings the choruses and the second verse.

In April 2023 I did a bunch of solo shows all over the UK, mostly supporting Trust Fund, which was Ellis and Celia, doing songs as a duo. My friend James drove me round in his Little Red Peugeot, and sold merch. It was one of those trips that’s like once in a lifetime? Top 10 for me, for sure. So it seemed natural to memorialize it in song. Of course, as with anything I do, it’s a sort of fiction. Everything is, I think. — Caleb Nichols
