Bronco, Orville Peck's second studio album, rode out on Columbia on April 8, 2022, and it's the masked South African cowboy going widescreen. Jay Joyce produced, and the record gallops between outlaw country, rockabilly twang and big, reverb-soaked alt-country, with Peck's deep, unhurried baritone sitting somewhere between Johnny Cash and Roy Orbison and a hint of shoegaze blur haunting the edges.
"The Curse of the Blackened Eye" and "Daytona Sand" crank up the drama and let the dust fly. Coming after the Show Pony EP, it earned a Juno nomination for Country Album of the Year and a spot on the Polaris Music Prize longlist.
