ORVILLE PECK shares new single "Turn to Hate"Debut LP 'Pony' due March 22nd via Sup PopLondon residency next week!Masked enigmatic country crooner shares new single ahead of LP release next month!OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASENEWS PROVIDED BY Stereo Sanctity ORVILLE PECK Masked enigmatic country crooner Orville Peck is sharing new single "Turn to Hate", taken from his upcoming debut LP 'Pony', which is due March 22nd via Sub Pop. Orville is set to play a London residency next week. "Turn to Hate" is a song about Orville's struggle in keeping his resentment from building into hatred. A continuous battle between embracing the strength & freedom of being an outsider and the inevitable struggle of wanting normalcy and familiarity - Orville's dilemma as a cowboy. He sings about having to constantly repair situations in his wake, and fighting with himself over his decision making. To stay or go; to cry or not; whether to leave without saying goodbye in order to soften the blow; And all the while wishing someone would tell him that they "can't stay" - to make the decision for him. In the words of Orville himself, “'Turn to Hate' is essentially a song about the anxiety that comes with being on the outside of things. Treading the line between existing as a loner but not letting that solitude turn into resentment. All that wrapped in a good ole’ country stomping barn-raiser!” Listen to "Turn to Hate" below: Combining the lulling ambiance of shoegaze with the iconic melodies and vocal prowess of classic American country music, outlaw cowboy, Orville Peck croons about love and loss from the badlands of North America. The resulting sound is entirely his own. He takes the listener down desert highways, through a world where worn out gamblers, road-dogs, and lovesick hustlers drift in and out of his masked gaze. Orville’s debut album, Pony, delivers a diverse collection of stories that sing of heartbreak, revenge and the unrelenting tug of the cowboy ethos. Warm lap steel guitars and echoing drums move through dreamy ballads and sometimes near frantic buzzsaw tunes - all the while paying homage to his country music roots. On the campfire lullaby, “Big Sky,” Orville sings about his past lovers - an aloof biker, an abusive boxer and an overly protective jailor in the Florida Keys - and the inevitable demise of each one, as he leaves them for the wide open, big sky. And “Buffalo Run” acts as a warning, a song built around the imagery of stampeding buffalo in the badlands of the Northern Plains. It’s one that begins peacefully enough but soon transcends into a kinetic charge that crescendos as the buffalo are headed off the cliffside. Pony was produced by Orville Peck, recorded and mixed by Jordan Koop at The Noise Floor on Gabriola Island, British Columbia and mastered by Harris Newman at Grey Market Mastering in Montreal, Quebec. Pony is now available for preorder through Sub Pop Mega Mart and Royal Mountain Records. US preorders of the LP through megamart.subpop.com and select independent retailers will receive the limited Loser edition on yellow with orange swirl vinyl (while supplies last). A new t-shirt design will also be available. Additionally, European and UK LP preorders of Pony through select independent retailers will receive the limited Loser edition on Gold vinyl (while supplies last).
