| Kacey Musgraves Comes Home to Middle of Nowhere Kacey Musgraves released her sixth studio album, Middle of Nowhere, on May 1 with a return to Lost Highway Records. Musgraves produced the album alongside Daniel Tashian and Ian Fitchuk, and it features collaborations with Willie Nelson, Billy Strings, Gregory Alan Isakov, and fellow East Texan Miranda Lambert. The sounds, stories, and sensibilities of her Texas upbringing inspired the album. Its title comes from an actual sign in her tiny hometown of Golden, Texas, with a population under 300, that reads, “Somewhere in the Middle of Nowhere.” That message struck a chord with what’s going on in her personal life during the creation of the album. It features pedal steel, accordion, and Texas dancehall rhythms backing the sound, and draws in touches of bluegrass, pop, Norteño, and Zydeco. READ MORE |
