ORANGE PEEL MOSES
ORANGE PEEL MOSES
Colorado cupids are thinking outside the box of chocolates this Valentine’s Day by sending their sweethearts, family members and coworkers a Custom Singing Telegram.
Denver-based artist-entertainer Orange peel moses is a titan of the singing telegram world and the founder of Custom Singing Telegrams.
“Valentine's Day is the big dance of the singing telegram universe,” says Orange peel moses. “One Valentine’s Day, I delivered 14 telegrams. I haven't consulted Guinness yet, but that just might be a record of some kind.”
The appeal of a singing telegram, especially when compared to the tried-and-true (read: tired) gifts of chocolate and flowers, is obvious. Imagine the look on your girlfriend’s face as she is serenaded by Cupid during her company meeting. And how might your boyfriend react if Cupid spontaneously appeared at your romantic Valentine’s dinner for a tableside song?
Time permitting, each Custom Singing Telegram can be upgraded and thoughtfully personalized with popular song lyrics rewritten to fit each recipient, for an experience that’s truly unforgettable for all involved.
After all, Orange peel moses is one of the most experienced telegram artists in the Rocky Mountain West. He’s been writing and singing telegrams for nearly 20 years, and his agency has facilitated more than 4000 singing telegrams to date. Other equally talented performers on Orange peel's Custom Singing Telegrams roster include Melissa Ivey and Rachel Taulbee.
Orange peel moses and his crew have performed for former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper, KMGH anchor Anne Trujillo, KUSA anchor Corey Rose, former Fox31 anchor Aristea Brady, former CBS reporter Jennifer Brice, Fox31 producer Beth Stringer, Everyday host Chris Parente, Kathie J and Daily Blast host Erica Cobb, and their entertaining antics have been featured on KMGH, KUSA, KWGN, KYGO, The Now Denver and other outlets.
In addition to personalized lyrics, an array of costumes is of course on the menu; Custom Singing Telegram artists have performed as everyone from Spider-Man to Elvis and Marilyn Monroe (either male or female) to the ever-popular Cupid.
Just think about it: Sending Cupid—a grown man dressed in a diaper and wings—to your lover's office is always guaranteed to score big laughs. Or enlisting a singing Fireman to make your Valentine sweat a little in front of his or her peers? Pure gold. Of course nothing beats having the lyrics of a recipient’s favorite karaoke jam retooled utilizing personal details.
“Laughter is a love language, and a grown man in a diaper and wings is guaranteed to facilitate some good laughs and lasting memories,” says Orange peel moses.
Other popular costumed characters for Valentine’s Day include: Love Bug, Heart, Lady Cupid, Marilyn Monroe, Queen of Hearts and Tuxedo Bo.

ABOUT ORANGE PEEL
ABOUT ORANGE PEEL
“A rare character.” – The Onion.
Orange peel moses has been a fixture in the Mile High Denver club scene for 20 years. As a musician, he has hit elevated notes on Red Rocks' upper terrace with now-defunct “Best Club DJ” Friends in Stereo for Global Dance Festival. As a stilt performer, he has cavorted onstage with Top 40 pop stars including LMFAO and Will.i.am at world-renowned EDM events like Ultra and Electric Daisy Carnival. As a singing telegram, he has introduced Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper and ambushed local news anchors on live TV. As a music journalist, he has interviewed artists from Steve Aoki to Henry Rollins.
Peele has never been one to shy away from larger-than-life characters roles. He has impersonated Zombie Michael Jackson, Alice in Wonderland's White Rabbit, Pumpkin King Jack Skellington and Gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson. He performed an uncanny homage to Johnny Cash for years. He even brings a unicorn to life via quad stilts and a silver saddle. Peele is currently plotting a music video for his new Daniel Iyere-produced, insect-infused love song "Butterflies.”
