Peacemaker is the third studio album from red dirt metal band Texas Hippie Coalition. The album was released on August 14, 2012 and reached No. 20 on the Billboard Hard Rock Albums chart. The singles, "Damn You to Hell" and "Turn It Up", were the first by the band to chart on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart, peaking at 40 and 39, respectively.
The album was produced by Bob Marlette.
According to lead vocalist Big Dad Ritch, "Peacemaker", the title track from the album, was written from the perspective of a gun, due to many of his previous compositions being written from his point of view. He goes on to state that "I'm not using that gun to rob somebody, to take what they got, I'm gonna be using that gun to protect what's mine.” The album also contains the track "Turn It Up", which talks about a woman who was born to a religious leader who starts down the road to become an adult entertainer.
