Orville Peck - Dead Of Night

LCM Song Of The Day: ‘Dead Of Night’ - Orville Peck

Our LCM featured track today by Canadian singer-songwriter Orville Peck is a very interesting one. Full of contemporary and varied influences for you to explore. Orville has often been described as a male version of Lana Del Rey. But there is so much depth and richest to Orville’s music. ‘Dead Of Night’ is a haunting, atmospheric track with a Twin Peaks vibe mixed with 90’s pop and Country. He wears a trademark fringed lone ranger mask too, which adds to his mystique. The track is taken from his debut album ‘Pony’ released in March last year via Sub-Pop. It delivers a diverse collection of stories that sing of heartbreak, revenge and the unrelenting tug of the cowboy ethos

Combining the lulling ambience of shoegaze with the iconic melodies and vocal prowess of classic American country music, enigmatic outlaw cowboy Orville Peck, croons love and loss from the badlands of North America.

The resulting sound is one completely his own, taking the listener down dusty rose-colored desert highways, through a world where worn out gamblers, aloof road-dogs and lovesick hustlers drift in and out of his masked gaze. Warm lap steel guitars and echoing drums move through dreamy ballads, campfire lullabies and sometimes frantic buzzsaw tunes, all the while paying homage to his country music roots.

Orville's music has been featured by Nylon magazine, ID mag, Vice, The Needle Drop, as well as numerous Apple Music and Spotify playlists. He has also had magazine features in New York's Hello Mr. and the UK's Notion.
