Brujeria to Continue Following Pinche Peach’s Death, GoFundMe for Funeral Costs Launched
Follow us on social media
Two weeks ago, we had the unfortunate responsibility of letting you all know that Brujeria‘s Ciriaco “Pinche Peach” Quezada had passed away at the young age of 57 after suffering “severe heart complications.” He was survived by his kids Thaies and Joao, as well as his mother Dolores. He’d been with the band since its creation back in 1989.
In recent days, Quezada’s son Joao started a GoFundMe page to help cover funeral costs, of which the family is looking to raise $35,000. On the page, the family posted the following message:
“We are heartbroken to announce that Ciriaco “Peach” Quezada aka El Pinche Peach, passed away on July 17, 2024, from serious heart complications.
“Ciriaco has left behind his beloved kids, Thaies and Joao, and his caring mother Dolores.
“Peach was a founding member of the band Brujeria. He dedicated over 30 years to the project as its first unmasked member and cared deeply about forming connections with audience members. His passion and dedication to music manifested not only in his powerful stage presence but also in his kindness and affection for concert-goers. I am certain that most people who have seen a Brujeria show or worked with them in their prolific career have had a memorable moment with “Pinche Peach”.
“Our family has incurred some serious costs to give Ciriaco a proper funeral that celebrates his life and legacy.
“To help ease the stress caused by the funeral costs, the family of Ciriaco “Peach” Quezada has set up this GoFundMe page. A contribution of any size is deeply appreciated.
“Thank you to all family, friends, and fans mourning the loss of El Pinche Peach.”
In a recent post to the band’s Facebook page, an announcement was made revealing that the band plans to continue on following Quezada’s death. Given the extensive touring schedule they had planned, there will be plenty of opportunities for fans to see the band and pay their respects to the fallen musician in the pit.
“Pinche Peach would want the party to rage on even without him!! Brujeria will play all upcoming tours as planned.
“It’s what Tio Peach would have wanted.”
