Kacey Musgraves Corrals Tour Plans

With her new Lost Highway album, Middle of Nowhere, set for release on Friday (May 1), Kacey Musgraves has confirmed a robust summer/fall tour in support of it. Dates begin Aug. 21 in Chicago, which just happens to be the artist’s 38th birthday, and conclude with an Oct. 26-27 stand in Seattle.

Opening acts will include Midland, Flatland Cavalry, Carter Faith, Estevie, Charles Wesley Godwin, William Beckmann, Gabriella Rose and the Brudi Brothers at various stops. Tickets go on sale to the general public on May 8 following a host of presales.

More from Spin:

Musgraves debuted a handful of Middle of Nowhere songs during a recent surprise Coachella set and will also perform May 17 as part of Prime Video’s ACM Awards. She’ll also celebrate the release of the new album with a May 3-5 run at Gruene Hall in New Braunfels, Texas. The support acts for those shows will be three Mexican-born, Texas-reared siblings who play in a mariachi band; the family was detained by ICE agents earlier this year but eventually released.

Musically, Middle of Nowhere leans into traditions shaped in small-town Texas dancehalls (pedal steel, Norteño accordion and other border-blurring textures) but rarely plays it straight. “Abilene” is a campfire tale with an effective twist, while “Everybody Wants To Be a Cowboy” pairs its barroom observations with a quietly pointed thesis about commitment in both love and life. Elsewhere, “Rhinestoned” gets giddy and high on a soft-focus, “Jive Talkin’”-style groove, and the nearly rapped verses of “Mexico Honey” swerve into something much more loose and horny.

“Creatively, I felt compelled to purposefully lean hard into western tropes and elements that I grew up on,” she says. “I knew I wanted simple and nostalgic framework with traditional elements like pedal steel and banjo, but, as always, I look at how to flip things on their head a bit.”
