Kacey Musgraves is a singer songwriter-Texas born and Texas proud. She has been performing professionally from an early age gaining experience, learning instruments and playing live shows.
At age 18, she released her self-titled debut album. Kacey wrote 10 of the 12 cuts on the album, several of which were co-written with fellow Texan, Miranda Lambert. "Writing is such a huge part of who I am. I want my music to be taken serious. It's my story...no one's going to write it for me." Included on the album are two well chosen covers. "I grew up hearing Neil Young at home and was inspired to pick up the harmonica so cutting "Heart of Gold" felt natural. I'd call myself an old-soul. I picked out an old "Byrd's" album from my grandpa's record collection. When I heard the song, "You're Still On My Mind", I knew instantly I had to record it."
One stop on her musical journey was appearing on the 5th season of USA Network's, "Nashville Star" in 2007. She was one of ten finalists selected out of over 20,000 hopefuls vying for a spot on the show-but didn't win. "Nashville Star was an amazing opportunity. I definitely don't see not winning as a bad thing. I'm young and have plenty of time to earn my grit on the road. I'm not a quitter."
Kacey's music hints of influences like Loretta Lynn, Chris Knight, Radney Foster and Tom Petty.
