Eight time Grammy winning artist announces North American Tour

Fresh off a surprise Coachella performance and in celebration of her new album Middle of Nowhere, eight-time Grammy Awards-winning singer-songwriter Kacey Musgraves has announced the North American dates for the “Middle of Nowhere” tour, promoted by AEG Presents.

The arena run kicks off Friday, Aug. 21 (Musgraves’ birthday), in Chicago at United Center and includes multiple nights at Madison Square Garden, Bridgestone Arena, and Crypto.com Arena before closing with two nights at Climate Pledge Arena on Oct. 26 and 27.

Supporting acts on the tour include Midland, Flatland Cavalry, Carter Faith, Estivi, Charles Wesley Godwin, William Beckmann, Gabriella Rose, and The Brudi Brothers. Tickets go on sale to the general public May 8. The album was released May 1.

You can catch the Middle of Nowhere tour on Wednesday, September 9 at the Schottenstein Center. Tickets are available online here.

This album follows her 2024 release Deeper Well, which marked Musgraves’ biggest debut sales week, landing at No. 1 on the sales chart and debuting at No. 1 on the Top Country Albums chart. She is also scheduled to perform at the 61st Academy of Country Music Awards, airing live on Prime Video Sunday, May 17, at 8 p.m. ET.

Written during a period of post-breakup reflection, the album finds Musgraves leaning into open space and traditional Western elements while earnestly examining the human experience. It serves as a sonic love letter to the musical borders of country, drawing influence from bluegrass, pop, Norteño, and Zydeco. Collaborators include Willie Nelson, Miranda Lambert, Billy Strings, and Gregory Alan Isakov, highlighting the album’s Texas roots and genre-blending spirit.
