Last night, Kacey Musgraves was the Musical Guest on “Saturday Night Live” ahead the release of her new album “Deeper Well”, and of course, she owned it:
Here’s her performance of the title track “Deeper Well”:
And her latest single “Too Good to Be True”:
Kacey is always simplistic perfection with her music and her live performances. There’s something almost hypnotic about her voice, and her overall aura. I’ve never understood why she never got as much airplay as say… Carrie Underwood or Kelsea Ballerini in Country radio. I’ve always advocated for her, and I remember playing the fire out of “Merry Go Round”, “Follow Your Arrow” and “Blowin’ Smoke”, but for some reason they never hit the top of the charts. Not that it matters… Kacey has proven that she doesn’t need twenty number one hits to be a staple. I mean, Florida-Georgia Line had a ton of #1 songs, and let’s be real, they’re weren’t a patch on Kacey’s artistry and talent. Kacey has stood her ground, and has the career longevity (and Grammys!) to prove it.
I’m excited for her next chapter, in which she returns to her Country roots. Her album “Deeper Well” drops March 15th.
She also announced her “Deeper Well” world our, and those dates are up at http://kaceymusgraves.com
And just for a throwback, here’s where a lot of Country fans discovered Kacey’s pure vocals:
Also, Granger Smith and his wife Amber play the couple in the video, and I am getting all the feels from that.
