ORVILLE PECK

2025 has been an artistic renaissance for Orville Peck, the trailblazing country performer who has spent the last 11 months soaring to new creative heights.

After 2024’s beloved collaboration album, Stampede, the masked singer took on an entirely new challenge: Broadway. In his mesmerizing, layered Emcee performance in Cabaret, Peck won legions of new fans and critical acclaim in kind. Somehow, between rehearsals, performances, and martial arts training for a starring role in the upcoming Street Fighter, he found his mind returning to music. So he did what he always does: he started writing, and linked with Unknown Mortal Orchestra’s Jacob Portrait (Alex G, Porches, Lil Yachty, and more) to start crafting the songs that would eventually make up Appaloosa, a bold and bright new seven-song EP. Appaloosa is a “creatively free” project based on “what I wanted to hear,” Orville says. “It was entirely about what I wanted it to sound like without caring about how it would be received or understood.”

Returning to Orville’s songwriting and production roots, Appaloosa is an exciting taste of what is next for one of music’s most singular voices.
