Country music star and gay icon Orville Peck recently opened up about postponing his tour, a decision he doesn’t regret at all. Rising to fame with his debut single “Dead of Night” and his first studio album “Pony,” Peck secured his record deal with Sub Pop by bluffing about having a full band, a gamble that paid off as he garnered thousands of fans and sold-out shows. In June 2023, he announced a pause on live performances to focus on his mental health, sharing on Instagram his need to replenish his mind and body. A year later, Peck stands by his decision, expressing to Us Weekly that prioritizing his well-being has made him a better artist, person, and leader for his band and crew.
