Orville Peck drops new album Mule and books US tour
The sounds of redemption are arriving, packaged in a raw and honest new musical statement from Orville Peck. The album Mule is set to drop on September 18 via Warner, but the anticipation has already begun with the release of the single Too Little, Too Late, offering a poignant glimpse into the emotional landscape of the forthcoming record.
This isn’t just a collection of songs; it is a deep, chronological account of personal struggle and recovery. Peck invites listeners into a journey exploring the complexities of addiction, the difficult pursuit of sobriety, and the profound process of self-rebuilding. As he described the project, Mule serves as a reflection—a genuine chronicle of the year he lost his way, delivered with an essential blend of honesty, humour, and compassion.
The tracklist itself hints at this intense introspection, featuring titles like Prologue (Eulogy of a Man Turned Mule), Rehab Blues, and the powerful closing track, Mule. It’s an auditory narrative that speaks directly to universal themes of mortality, regret, and the messy reality of finding one’s footing again.
Beyond the music, Peck is gearing up for a major North American tour this fall and winter, bringing this new material to audiences across the continent. The journey will include stops in key cities, starting with Canada where he will perform at Toronto’s History on November 17, Ottawa’s Hard Rock Ottawa on November 18, and Montreal’s MTELUS on November 19.
Fans eager to dive into the full experience have access to presales beginning on July 27 at 10 a.m. local time, followed by the general on-sale on July 31. The new album Mule is poised to be more than just a collection of songs; it is an invitation into a deeply human story, ready to unfold live for audiences across North America.
