Daniel Pitout (born January 6, 1988), known professionally as Orville Peck, is a South African country musician based in the United States and Canada. He is well-known for wearing a mask and not showing his face publicly.[1][2][3][4]
He released his debut album Pony in 2019,[1] followed by the EP Show Pony the next year. His second studio album Bronco was released in 2022. Following a self-imposed hiatus in 2023, Peck released his third studio album Stampede in 2024. Orville’s voice is described as “deep, calm bass-baritone that recalls the bygone era of Johnny Cash and Roy Orbison; the haunting guitar riffs drift between rockabilly, blues, and dreamy shoegazing distortions."[5]
Early life
[edit]Peck was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, and lived there until he was 15.[6] As a child, he taught himself music by playing an acoustic guitar and an old Casio keyboard.[7] He is the son of a sound engineer, and he did voice-over work for cartoons and other media as a child.[8] Growing up, he took ballet classes for 12 years, and performed in musical theatre productions. By the time he was in his early 20s, he had been on national tours of musicals.[8]
Peck moved to London for a foundation degree in acting from the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art in 2014.[9] He then played Jonathan Harris/Peter Pan in the Mischief Theatre production of Peter Pan Goes Wrong at the Apollo Theatre in 2016.[10][11]
Career
[edit]Peck self-produced his debut album, Pony, and released it in 2019 through a collaboration with Sub Pop.[12] He has noted that he "wrote, produced and played every instrument he could" on the album while working in a coffee shop and living with his parents.[13] In June of that year, he performed his songs "Dead of Night" and "Take You Back" live on CBC Radio One's Q.[14] Pony was named to the initial longlist for the 2019 Polaris Music Prize in June 2019.[15] The album also received a Juno Award nomination for Alternative Album of the Year at the Juno Awards of 2020.[16]
Also in 2019, he started an annual Orville Peck's Rodeo, which takes place in different cities across the US and brings in up-and-comers in the country music genre.[17]
Peck performed "Dead of Night" on Jimmy Kimmel Live on January 29, 2020.[18] He also announced a tour of selected cities in the United States, including performances at the Coachella and Stagecoach festivals.[18]
In May 2020, Peck announced the follow-up to his debut album, an EP titled Show Pony, with a release date of June 12, 2020. In June 2020, Peck announced the delayed release of Show Pony until August 14, 2020, in recognition of the Black Lives Matter movement and the George Floyd protests.[19][20]
Peck recorded a cover of "Smalltown Boy" for the 2020 Pride edition of the Spotify Singles series. The song was released exclusively on Spotify on June 29, 2020, and everywhere else on July 31, 2020.[21]
In April 2021, Peck was featured on American drag queen and singer Trixie Mattel's EP, Full Coverage, Vol. 1. He appeared on a duet cover of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash's "Jackson".[22] Although not credited in the liner notes for the EP, Trixie Mattel has confirmed that the whistle part in "Video Games" is Peck's whistle.[23] In June, he was revealed to be the sixth artist on Lady Gaga's Born This Way The Tenth Anniversary, with Peck reimagining the song "Born This Way" in a country style.[24]
On March 16, 2023, Peck made an appearance as a guest on the judge's panel on MTV's RuPaul's Drag Race, alongside RuPaul Charles, Michelle Visage, and Ross Mathews.[25] In 2023, Peck was a coach and judge on My Kind of Country.[26]
On April 5, 2024, Peck released a cover of Ned Sublette's "Cowboys Are Frequently, Secretly Fond of Each Other" with country musician Willie Nelson as the lead single from Stampede, Peck's third studio album and first duets album. The single marked his first release on Warner Records.[27] Peck also announced a headlining North American tour, The Stampede Tour, which began on May 28, 2024, in Asheville, North Carolina.[28] In May 2024, Peck released the duet "How Far Will We Take It?" with Noah Cyrus. On 7 June 2024, Peck released the single "Midnight Ride" alongside Kylie Minogue and Diplo.[29]
Artistry
[edit]Identity
[edit]It has been confirmed that Orville Peck is a persona of Daniel Pitout, drummer of the Canadian punk band Nü Sensae.[30] It was previously speculated that Pitout was Peck based on the similarity of their tattoos,[31][32] and Peck's mentioning that he was in a punk band. Pitout was born in Johannesburg, South Africa,[33] as was Peck.[6] Pitout is also listed by ASCAP as the songwriter for Peck's song "Old River"[34] and other songs that match the titles of the songs released by Peck, such as "Roses Are Falling".[35]
Influences
[edit]In his interview to National Public Radio on June 18, 2019, Orville said: "I've never raised cattle or anything like that, but I think I've been a cowboy my whole life."[36]
Peck strongly identifies with 1970s era country music and lists classic stars Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, George Jones, Tammy Wynette, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Gram Parsons, Emmylou Harris, Bobbie Gentry, Reba McEntire and Dolly Parton as influences. Outside of country music, Peck has mentioned Roy Orbison, Oasis, Whitney Houston and Lana Del Rey and film directors David Lynch and John Waters as influences.[37][38]
Personal life
[edit]Peck is gay.[31][39] A shirtless selfie of Peck appeared in Out in April 2024,[40] and an interview in the July 2024 issue of Paper was accompanied by semi-nude photos.[41]
In 2008, Pitout posed unmasked for Gayletter.[42] He has given various accounts of how he came to adopt a mask :
- In a 2019 interview with Vogue: "I just woke up one day and it was on my face, and it has always been there."[43]
- In 2020: "The only reason I don't talk about it in depth is not because I want to dodge any questions, but because I want people to have their own take on it. I don't want to lay it out and pin it down. I just don't think that's important."[44]
- In 2023: "fringed mask? I grew up loving country where there was an intersection between theatricality and very honest songwriting. Dolly’s a perfect example—the big wigs, the crazy outfits, but it’s her. For me, I was obsessed with the Lone Ranger, cowboys hiding their face, so that's what I wanted to do."[45]
As of July 2024[update], Peck lives in Los Angeles.[46] His home was featured in Architectural Digest in 2023.[47]

Everyone thinks I'm Canadian because I lived in Canada for a long time, but I'm not. I was born in South Africa—I grew up in Johannesburg until I was 15. I never talked about where I was from only because I wanted to wait—obviously, I'm a man of mystery and I like to not give everyone everything all at once. ... There's a sense of guilt and regret in the song about leaving somewhere that you don't really want to leave because you have to go make your way in the world. I'm so proud to be South African. I go back there all the time.
