A continuous battle between embracing the strength and freedom of being an outsider, and the inevitable struggle of wanting normalcy and familiarity. It encapsulates Orville's dilemma as a cowboy. He sings about having to constantly repair situations in his wake, and fighting with himself over his decision making. To stay or go; to cry or not; whether to leave without saying goodbye in order to soften the blow; All the while wishing someone would tell him that they \"can't stay,\" and to make the decision for him.\nhttps://orvillepeck.bandcamp.com/album/pony\nhttps://www.orvillepeck.com/", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3635928, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3635928/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-03-31T07:51:02-07:00", "show": 66328, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66328/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://dn720000.ca.archive.org/0/items/mbid-8d8ffa3b-aae9-44c5-83f8-55ac05fa52ad/mbid-8d8ffa3b-aae9-44c5-83f8-55ac05fa52ad-44186539920_thumb500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://dn720000.ca.archive.org/0/items/mbid-8d8ffa3b-aae9-44c5-83f8-55ac05fa52ad/mbid-8d8ffa3b-aae9-44c5-83f8-55ac05fa52ad-44186539920_thumb250.jpg", "song": "That White Cat", "track_id": "e1c16bb5-19cc-4971-8e90-e70f14d3e505", "recording_id": "57cd722e-709d-4d1f-98a4-7fb5850f16b5", "artist": "Mitski", "artist_ids": [ "fa58cf24-0e44-421d-8519-8bf461dcfaa5" ], "album": "Nothing’s About to Happen to Me", "release_id": "8d8ffa3b-aae9-44c5-83f8-55ac05fa52ad", "release_group_id": "f24aa16e-4bb0-4ba3-8317-91c0a518f0a1", "labels": [ "Dead Oceans" ], "label_ids": [ "f70f950f-2587-4f85-a5c7-b483a47bd2e9" ], "release_date": "2026-02-27", "rotation_status": "Heavy", "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Few singer-songwriters can keep their captive audience firmly in their grips the way that Mitski can. Her eighth studio album, ‘Nothing’s About to Happen to Me,’ is a lush, expansive set of melancholic art pop, featuring elements of indie-rock, alt-country, and jazz. While often steeped in a distinct ennui, these eleven tracks still exude strength and hope through ornate arrangements, captivating theatrics, and her undeniable vocal prowess,\" writes KEXP's Music Director, Chris Sanely. \n\nhttps://mitski.bandcamp.com/", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3635927, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3635927/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-03-31T07:48:33-07:00", "show": 66328, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66328/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "comment": "", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "airbreak" } ] }
