Each session\, the group reads and discusses four writers’ submissions\, and for every piece\, the instructor prepares an individual craft lesson—the one element she believes will most help tha t piece take its next step forward. \nThis is workshopping in the traditio nal model\, with three things added. Every writer receives detailed\, line -level editing and concrete revision strategies. Feedback leads with stren gths\, naming what each piece is already doing well before offering where the greatest opportunity lies\, because writers revise most effectively fr om their best work\, and often don’t yet see what that is. Feedback is f ramed as craft questions—what is this scene asking for\, where does the work want to build—so that writers leave with direction they can act on. \nWeekly Structure\nEach class session will include:\n• Four custom cra ft lessons drawn from the pieces under discussion\, applicable to all\n• Collaborative workshopping of four participants’ submissions\n• Scene -writing practice and supportive read-alouds of new work\n• Q&A on craft and technique \nWhat Writers Will Gain\n• Personalized\, craft-based fe edback on their work in progress across the full term\n• Custom craft le ssons matched to each writer’s specific needs\n• Detailed\, line-level editing and clear\, actionable revision strategies \nCourse Outcome\nBy t he end of the term\, writers will have a confident sense of their strength s and their clearest opportunities to grow\, and a set of scene-writing to ols they can return to. They will also leave with a supportive community o f working writers and the accountability to keep going—carrying their pr oject forward with direction and momentum. \nAccess Program\nWe want our w riting classes and seminars to be accessible to everyone\, regardless of i ncome and background.

After 2024’s beloved collaboration album\, Stampede-which featured such icons as Willi e Nelson\, Kylie Minogue\, Elton John\, and more-the masked singer took on an entirely new challenge: Broadway. In his mesmerizing\, layered debut a s the Emcee in Cabaret\, Peck won legions of new fans and critical acclaim in kind during his 128-show run in the celebrated production. \nUprooting his life from California to New York City for nearly half a year\, the Po ny and Bronco singer-songwriter found newfound musical\, lyrical inspirati on wherever he turned. “I was trying to challenge myself with being more vulnerable with songwriting\, and I think that experience felt so insanel y vulnerable for me\,” he says of the doors Cabaret unlocked. “Obvious ly I was performing without my mask\, which was so new for me\, but the na ture of the material being so heavy-with me going in really wanting to do a good job-pushed me to even more new levels of vulnerability.” \nSomeho w\, between rehearsals\, performances\, and martial arts training for a st arring role in a late summer movie shoot (Street Fighter\, due out in 2026 )\, he kept finding his mind returning to music. So he did what he always does: he started writing\, and linked with Unknown Mortal Orchestra’s Ja cob Portrait (Alex G\, Porches\, Lil Yachty\, and more) to start crafting the songs that would eventually make up Appaloosa. The seven-song EP reuni tes Peck with longtime collaborator Noah Cyrus on “Atchafalaya\;” pays tribute to his Cabaret stint with a cover of the Sally Bowles’ number “Maybe This Time\;’ and plumbs new emotional ground with “Oh My Days ”-which the artist calls his “first-ever love song\, considering that I always write about heartbreak\, not love.” \n“I always tend to sing and write about what’s going on in my life\, and that felt like a natura l\, big part of my life that’s evolved since Bronco-which was very much about coming out of a relationship\,” Peck says. “This is the first ba tch of songs that are about the start of this new relationship\, and the f ears and doubts and insecurities that come with new feelings for someone\, especially after coming out of such a tumultuous time in the Bronco world . These songs are about a time when I felt very nervous about being heartb roken again\, and what it meant to fall in love again for the first time i n a long time.” \nPeck recorded Appaloosa in Brooklyn during rare free w indows in his calendar. Its title\, he says\, felt like slipping on a glov e. “An appaloosa is a famously spotted horse\, and in some ways\, to me that represents a singularity-a uniqueness\,” he says. “In my mind\, I picture a bunch of different horses all standing around\, all different b reeds\, but you would notice the appaloosa standing out because their coat is so distinct and so unique. These last few years\, since Bronco\, a big part of my own path has been really embracing who I am\, realizing that m y confidence was always really greatly affected by being insecure about my uniqueness instead of embracing it.” \n“I think in some ways\, at the moment\, I feel kind of like an appaloosa\,” he adds. “I’ve finally accepted I just am and will probably always be or feel different\, I thin k. But instead of that feeling alienating like it used to for most of my l ife\, now it makes me feel excited and happy and lucky to feel different. I’m in my appaloosa era right now.” \nThat freedom-creatively\, person ally\, professionally-unlocked a desire in Peck as he embarked upon the Ap paloosa process. “This year\, I got to do so many things that were lifel ong dreams\, so much so that I’m actually now adamantly happy that I don ’t fit into those rooms and boxes\,” he says. “I made a conscious de cision on this album to return to as pure of a place as I could. When I ma de Pony\, I didn’t have an audience\; no one knew who I was\, no one car ed\, and I didn’t have anybody to answer to. There were no expectations on me whatsoever\, and when there’s no ears or eyes on you\, you can rea lly make art for yourself.” \nAppaloosa is\, in every sense\, a project based on “what I wanted to hear\,” Orville says. “It was entirely ab out what I wanted it to sound like without caring about how it would be re ceived or understood.” In that sense\, he was able to return to his root s “in terms of production and songwriting and sound\,” he says. “I w as going back to references that I really liked when I was a teenager-ther e’s all these shoegaze-y\, alternative moments on the album. It allowed me to pivot to where I came from\, having learned a lot of new things alon g the way.” \nFree of expectations\, what Peck created is one of his mos t exhilarating and alive bodies of work yet. Throughout Appaloosa’s seve n songs\, fans will hear Orville at his most unburdened\, creating for the sake of artistic expression. Tone-setter “Dreaded Sundown” opens the project “cinematically\, laying out this new flavor and telling this sto ry about being okay being alone with yourself\, especially after a period of pain and betrayal.” \n“Drift Away” follows\, inspired by Orville ’s childhood love of alt-rock acts like the Pixies\, the Breeders\, and the Smashing Pumpkins. “I wanted it to be an ode to being an outsider in a small town\, me and all my fellow freaky friends living in a sleepy tow n\, looking for ways to get up to fun.” Noah Cyrus joins him on “Atcha falaya\,” a track that chronicles his journey from California to New Yor k for Cabaret\, putting his personal life and the things he loved on hold to “do the other things you love”-all wrapped in lyrics trailing the r oute from Louisiana’s Atchafalaya Basin up to the Big Apple. \nUpon arri val in New York\, there’s a heartbreaking cover of what he calls “lyri cally a country song in a lot of ways”: “Maybe This Time\,” a salute to his debut on the Great White Way. “In the show when Eva Noblezada wo uld sing this one\, I would be busy doing a really crazy quick change\,” he says. “But I would be adamantly trying to go faster and faster each time so I could run to the side stage and watch her finish. It covers so m any nuances of what the human experience.” \n“Oh My Days”-his “fir st love song\, I think!”-tells the story of finding his partner and thos e feelings that come with the first love after the worst love. “My body was walking towards him\, and my heart and my soul were running in the oth er direction because I was so traumatized\,” he says. “‘Oh My Days ’ is about talking yourself out of something that you know is making you happy because you’re frightened-and overcoming those fears\, too.” \n “Oh My Days\,” Peck says\, has been burning a hole in his back pocket for four years\, waiting for the right project to find its home. But “My Side of the Mountain” came from more raw experiences\, chronicling a br eak with his partner during which both needed “to take some time to work on ourselves\,” he remembers. At the time\, both lived literally one ca nyon apart in Los Angeles. “I would lay awake at night knowing that he w as literally 10 minutes away from me over the other side of the mountain\, ” he says. “So this song is an ode to what I was going through at that time-that I could probably shout loud enough and he could hear me\, and t he idea of letting someone go\, even if it’s just temporarily\, to focus on yourself.” \nAppaloosa closes with “It’s the End of the World\, ” a song Orville started writing the same day as the 2024 election. “T he most important thing I think that we can do sometimes is to try and car ve out happiness where and how we can find it\, especially in times when i t is just so easy to get disheartened about what’s going on in the world \,” he says. “This was my way of grabbing the person next to me and ju st saying\, ‘You know? Eff it\, let’s Thelma and Louise it and just tr y and find some happiness in all of this despair.'” \n“I’d call this one a positively nihilistic anthem about the world burning\,” he adds w ith a chuckle. \nPromising a much shorter wait between projects\, Orville says he’s already begun thinking about and writing his next musical chap ter. “Even in some of the absolute most hopeless\, hard\, dark times of my life\, art and specifically music has been what has saved my life over and over again\,” he says. And I don’t even mean just making it. I mea n getting to enjoy it. So my hope is that even though we are in what feels like such bleak times that people will still continue to make art that fe els like it is important or matters or helps people.” \n\nSpotify:\nhttp s://open.spotify.com/artist/46auOkH1pk28rWrSoUNhLo?si=gwLOf-q9RxyA16bZ7loJ yg LAST-MODIFIED:20260912T002211Z URL:https://edgefieldconcerts.com/events/276992-orville-peck/?utm_source=c aldiscovery&utm_medium=ics&utm_campaign=portland-or X-SOURCE-NAME:Edgefield Concerts X-SOURCE-URL:https://edgefieldconcerts.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Discover Your Divinity Class DTSTART:20260924T013000Z DTEND:20260924T033000Z DTSTAMP:20260914T112301Z UID:80-685471@unityofportland.org CATEGORIES:education DESCRIPTION:This class is open to everyone.
