Fans lucky enough to attend Coachella weekend two were treated to a surprise Kacey Musgraves set at the Mojave tent, where she debuted two Middle of Nowhere tracks: “Back on the Wagon” and “Uncertain, TX.” She also dug in with renditions of George Strait’s “All My Exes Live in Texas” and the Brooks & Dunn banger “Neon Moon.”

About the Album: Middle of Nowhere
The Middle of Nowhere Tour is named after Musgraves’ seventh studio album, released May 1, 2026. The album title was inspired by a sign Musgraves noticed near her hometown of Golden, Texas, reading “Somewhere in the Middle of Nowhere.”
Written during “the longest single period” of her life following a breakup, the 13-track album is being hailed by critics as a return to her twangier Texas roots while still pushing genre boundaries. It blends Western swing, Texas dancehall, bluegrass, traditional country, norteño, mariachi, and zydeco, with pedal steel and accordion weaving through nearly every track. Rolling Stone called it a “hard-won homecoming” in which fans will find Kacey leaning into the sounds which first made her a star.
The album features a stellar lineup of collaborators including Willie Nelson, Miranda Lambert, Billy Strings, and Gregory Alan Isakov. Lead single “Loneliest Girl” is headed to country radio on May 4, 2026.

Kacey Musgraves Opening Acts 2026
The Middle of Nowhere Tour features a rotating cast of openers, each chosen to complement the album’s deep roots in country, Americana, and Texas music. Joining Musgraves on the road is Midland, Flatland Cavalry, Carter Faith, Charles Wesley Godwin, William Beckmann, Estevie, Gabriella Rose, and The Brudi Brothers.
The Brudi Brothers hold a particularly special place in this tour. The group is comprised of three mariachi brothers previously detained by ICE whom Musgraves publicly championed and invited to perform with her at Gruene Hall in Texas ahead of the arena run. When considering the norteño and mariachi influences on the new album, the inclusion of The Brudi Brothers on this tour is extra meaningful.

Tips for Getting the Best Price on Kacey Musgraves Tickets
Set a price alert. On TickPick, you can set up alerts for specific shows so you’re notified the moment prices drop to your target range. This is especially useful for high-demand dates like the two Madison Square Garden nights or the LA Crypto.com Arena shows.
Check mid-week prices. Ticket prices on the secondary market tend to dip on Tuesdays and Wednesdays so if you have flexibility, that’s when to buy.
Go last-minute for big markets. In cities with multiple nearby shows (like New York with two MSG dates, Nashville with two Bridgestone nights, or LA with two Crypto.com shows), unsold inventory on night two often gets listed at a discount closer to showtime.
Consider less-talked-about markets. Dates in Milwaukee, Columbus, Pittsburgh, and Salt Lake City tend to have lower secondary market prices than major coastal cities. Plus, a Kacey Musgraves show in a smaller arena can feel even more intimate and special.
Kacey Musgraves Setlist Predictions

Shows in Texas (Houston, Austin, Dallas) are likely to lean harder into the norteño and Tejano influences of Middle of Nowhere. Nashville nights may feature surprise guests given Musgraves’ longtime ties to Music City.
