ANAHEIM, Calif. — Country and alternative rock artist Orville Peck is joining an exclusive club of musicians that have been tapped to perform at both the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and its sister Stagecoach Country Music Festival back-to-back in Indio this month.
Crossing over and playing to the vastly different audiences each festival attracts is a feat only a few have accomplished, including Willie Nelson, Dwight Yoakam and The Avett Brothers. Country, soul and R&B artist Yola will also perform at both festivals this year.
“It’s a beautiful compliment and also it’s exciting,” Peck said during a recent interview. “I love that my music seems to be able to crossover not only music genres, but genres of people. We do notice the sheer diversity of people in the crowd at my shows, which has always been a beautiful and obvious point to us on tour. We bring together a bunch of different people that maybe wouldn’t be in the same room typically, so that’s a great feeling.”
