LOS ANGELES, CA- Orville Peck came ouf the blue and released his critically acclaimed debut album Pony last year, catching the country scene by surprise with his lush baritone vocals and effortless crooning. Recently, Orville Peck has shared his new, self-produced track “Summertime” (and its official music video) via Columbia Records.
Of the song, Orville says:
“I wrote this song a long time ago and to me, Summertime has a few different meanings. Summertime can be a season, a person, or a memory of a happier time that can be difficult to visit. We also wanted the video to focus on the idea of how we treat nature. Ultimately this is a song about biding your time and staying hopeful – even if it means missing something or someone.”
It’s actually quite fitting given the current state of global affiars in the age of Covid-19,
The video was directed by Drew Kirsch (Taylor Swift, John Legend) and finds Orville, keeping within the cowboy way of life, traveling the distance, alone in a vast landscape.
More new music and visuals will be released in the coming weeks; fans should visit his official website and socials for updates.
