Orlando Peña is a Milwaukee-based singer and songwriter for the award-winning, Americana/soul folk band, The Midnight Purchase.
He makes use of his commanding vocal ability to recount tales from his years in the High Sierra mountains of Nevada, to the low, vast plains of rural Illinois and countless places in between.
He creates honest, approachable music about foolishness, loss, love, introspection and the constant search for a purpose. Orlando is featured in our newest season of RHYTHM CAFÉ MKE this year.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
