Show Notes
Orville Peck is living proof that it takes 10 years to be an Overnight Success From being a ballet dancer in South Africa, an actor in London, and a touring artist in a punk band for nearly 15 years– there is NO ONE with a journey quite like his. He exemplifies that the first step of your career does not need to look like the last step, and no matter where you are, or how long you’ve been doing something. You can ALWAYS make a creative pivot. Not only that, he doesn’t sit inside the box or conform to the “standards” of the industry. How many other gay country singers wearing a fringe mask can you name? But it was exactly that which made him stand out. So I wanted to sit down with him to learn more about his journey and talk all things his new EP “Appolossa” 0:00 - Intro 1:20 - The Lore of Orville Peck 7:25 - Why the mask? 12:28 - Willie Nelson 18:25 - Elton John 20:00 - Midnight Ride w Kylie Minogue & Diplo 22:06 - Noah Cyrus 26:36 - Cabaret & Maybe This Time 31:19 - My Side of the Mountain 33:56 - Drift Away 35:26 - Making Music Videos 42:00 - Street Fighter Movie 43:36 - Working w Friends 45:06 - Oh my days

SHOUTOUT to the creator Mikey Posada for his video on this topic that inspired me to make a response to his take!!
Y'all have been asking for an Adéla episode for a LONGGG time, and with her debut album out last week, it was finally time to answer the call!!Adela has been an artist to watch of mine for a WHILE now. Since she released her first single as an independent artist.The signs of becoming a major popstar are all there. The performance, vocals, artistry, visuals, storytelling and worldbuilding. Every time I hear her speak she reminds me of a young Lady Gaga. She has so much hunger and drive that I can't wait to see her career explode from here0:00 - Intro6:57 - Adéla Dream Academy11:10 - What makes Adéla so different?15:52 - The Opposite of Katseye17:26 - What Adéla stands for20:07 - Adéla's songwriting22:09 - Adéla's Branding23:09 - Bangerz Miley Cyrus25:37 - Adéla Branding (cont)30:00 - Adéla is a DANCER
It's been a long time since we did a solo video essay!!! I missed it so muchThe biggest shoutout to @Lindsiann and her video that inspired this one:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pN_OGOPI92g This week I wanted to do a deep dive on the creative process itself. As someone with Adhd and a chronic procrastination problem, this is something I think about ALL the time. How sometimes, spending so much time on the planning process, creative ideas, and brainstorming can actually be a form of procrastination as an artist.I've always been obsessed with books like The Artist's Way or The Creative Act and hopefully this video gives a similar feeling0:00 - Intro 3:47 - The Perfectionist 7:24 - How to stop being a perfectionist 9:31 - The Potentialist 13:34- stop being addicted to potential 16:45 - The Strategist 21:24 - The Overthinker 24:05 - Complacency Kills Ambition 26:06 - How to stop overthinking
