Orville Peck

Hello hi, this guy makes some good music. He cites Roy Orbison and Johnny Cash as inspirations but also stans Kacey Musgraves and Drag Race Thailand. His album Pony just came out and is excellent. Oh and it seems nobody knows what his face looks like.

Here is his stuff

The mask is kinda hot right? I dont expect this to go far but we stan a queer country artist with shoegaze-ey vibes. Hey @Jwentz!

 

He stans Paris Hilton’s iconic album Paris so naturally I stan. Really though, this album is nice. I love “Roses Are Falling” especially.

 

That thread title was too much. It really did have me yeehawing.

 

Anybody recognize the tattoos?

 

He reminds me of a country, male counterpart to Lana especially on Dead of Night.

I'm too into this.

 

I just randomly discovered "Dead Of Night" on youtube the other day and fell in love.

 

Is the name even real?

 

Oh wig. I shall dig into his oeuvre later

 

Isn't this him? He seems to be the opening act for his own shows. Hiding in plain sight. He also recently released a song as James Burgess titled Strange Halo on Bandcamp.

 

A minute and a half into Turn To Hate and I have already decided to stan forever. He sounds deadass like vocal-peak Elvis doing shoegaze mixed with R.E.M. at their peak, by way of Twin Peaks, and I'm into it.

 

Also -

James isn't him. When you buy Pony on Bandcamp it comes with a digital booklet that names Daniel Pitout as the songwriter - Daniel's most recent tweet, as of September 13, 2018, is:

I think this is like, everything I've ever wanted in a country act so let me stan immediately.

 

Queen of the Rodeo though, oh my god.



And the way Kansas (Remembers Me Now) literally frays out at the end...whew.

@fancygreen get your ass in here IMMEDIATELY

 

His voice is like buttah

I'm here for this.

 

Watch out, Detective La Toya!!

 

Also, he did a shoot for Butt magazine, but I’m guessing nobody on this forum would be into that kind of thing...

 

The tattoos match, good detective.

 

I've loved Dead of Night since it got released, it became one of my favourite songs. I had no idea his album was out, looking forward to giving it a listen!

 

Ddd I'm about to have tickets to see him. Little Pony, giddy up!
