Overview
Before heading to across the ditch to wow the crowds at Mona Foma, Canadian cowboy crooner Orville Peck will be at the Auckland's Tuning Fork to inject a much-needed dose of camp into country music. Peck is something of an enigma, he only started performing earlier this year and the disguise he wears at all times (think the Lone Ranger's mask, with but with a fabulous fringe) means his identity has thus far remained a secret, although, obviously, rumours abound. He self produced his debut album, Pony, which was nominated for the Polaris Prize, Canada's most prestigious musical honour. It's 100 percent Nashville; zero percent bashful.
