Kacey Musgraves - Golden Hour (2018) LP

Kacey Musgraves releases her 4th Studio album for UMG Nashville, Golden Hour. Musgraves describes her new album as having a "trippy" twist, citing the Bee Gees, Sade, and Neil Young as influences. In addition to reuniting with previous collaborators such as Luke Laird, Shane McAnally, and Natalie Hemby, Musgraves sought out pals Ian Fitchuk and the Silver Seas’ Daniel Tashian as her primary co-producers and co-writers.

The multiple Grammy-winning artist co-wrote and co-produced the album with Ian Fitchuk and Daniel Tashian. Kacey reveals, "I had a different mindset this time, which was feeling rather than thinking – leading heart first." Her most intimate album to date, Golden Hour, is introduced with two key tracks, the captivating and melancholic "Space Cowboy," and the uplifting, dreamy "Butterflies."

"Naturally, her relationship with (new husband Ruston) Kelly inspired plenty of material. "I have a lot more love songs this time around, and I’ve never been one to write a love song and really feel it," Musgraves says.
