“This collection of shoegaze-tinged melodies paired with classic American-country vocals captures Peck’s admiration of country greats like Dolly Parton and Johnny Cash, with a hint of ‘80s glam and grunge.” - PAPER “The 12-song Pony is a mesmerizing, genre-bending journey filled with Roy Orbison-esque lovelorn country ballads, Old West boot-stompers and cowpunk trail songs that recall fellow sonic-fusers like Lone Justice and Rank and File.” - Wide Open Country “Pony makes for a compelling introduction to this self-anointed country star.” [50 Best Albums of 2019 So Far] - Billboard “Pony is a weirdly satisfying musical milkshake, an at-times spooky blend of classic country, shoegaze ambience and vintage rock ‘n’ roll that goes down more like a smooth slurp of whiskey.” [10 Great Country and Americana Albums Released So Far in 2019] - PASTE “Peck distinguishes himself by imbuing the deeply-rooted sound with emotional dissonance, shadowy flares of shoegaze-y guitars, cinematic crescendos, and vocals that combine the love-sickness of Roy Orbison with the menacing gravel of Johnny Cash. “ – The 405 “His music is bursting with personality, a 21st century-ready re-imagining of the classic outlaw country tradition.” - Loud & Quiet "It’s a country record, built out of broken-glass heartbreak, tearful melodies, and sweeping, deserted drama, wandering from one blackened torch song to the next." - THE FADER “The priapic “Dead of Night” is Roy Orbison’s “I Drove All Night” if it had a Grindr profile or The Ballad of Buster Scruggs with John Waters behind the lens. We love it so much we might cry.” [“Dead of Night” / Tracks of the Week] - The Guardian “Although we may never know the man behind the mask, with the release of Peck’s highly anticipated album…just might find some of the answers we are looking for” – Milk.XYZ “The music of Orville Peck is a love letter and urgent update to a genre whose rebellious spirit has been co-opted and polished, at once a reminder of where country music came from, but also pushing the boundaries on where it can go.” - Exclaim “Though his sound remembers a particular era of country music, Orville Peck’s Pony is sentimentally everlasting, and a tender reminder that a mask can reveal more than it hides.” [9/10] - The 405 “With Pony, Orville Peck has put himself in the boxing ring for his own ’68 Comeback Special.” [8.5/10] - The Line Of Best Fit “The familiar tropes of nomadic wrangler life are present--trusty steed, blood-red sunsets--but, refreshingly, the masculine cliches are not. Instead, the country-rocker concentrates on intimacy, tenderness and ambiguity.” [8/10] - Uncut "As part of a long history of rockers going genre, most famously with glammy New York Dolls frontman David Johansen’s totally 80s transformation to lounge lizard Buster Poindexter, Peck gladly immerses willing listeners in his weird, Southern-fried world." - Noisey “It’s a country record, built out of broken-glass heartbreak, tearful melodies, and sweeping, deserted drama, wandering from one blackened torch song to the next.” -THE FADER “Get ready for an intense sonic ride on Orville Peck’s stellar debut album, Pony” - L’Officiel “His music is bursting with personality, a 21st century-ready re-imagining of the classic outlaw country tradition.” - Loud & Quiet “Utterly seductive.” - MOJO
