Yeesh. “You Hipsters”.Watching Orville Peck on the Lollapalooza stream…
1. his voice is annoying
2. He is as inauthentic as any singer I’ve ever heard - I just don’t believe him
3. It’s not even country, it’s the cure with a bad twang singer
4. You hipsters like him cause of his schtick
5. He might as well be Father John McPrissy Pants (except FJM does actually have a nice voice)
1. to each their own but to my ear dude’s vocals are in the same realm as other crooners such as ; Morrissey, Johnny Cash, Chris Isaac, Roy Orbison
2. Musicans have shticks. Bowie wasn’t really a space alien, Dylan wasn’t really a hobo tramp.
3. I don’t think anyone has was ever presented Orville as Pure or Authentic Country.
4. Personally I enjoyed his music in spite of his shtick initially
5. Father John Misty is another talented artist that “Purists” whine about inauthenticy. When he has always been open and upfront about his public persona being phony in a much more legitimate way than many artist who claim to be “real”. If you don’t enjoy his persona that’s fine but getting huffy about it being inauthentic is a bit rich
