Golden Hour is Kacey’s third studio album, and continues to branch out her self-described style of cosmic country. Golden Hour received widespread acclaim from critics, winning in all four of its nominated categories at the 61st Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year and Best Country Album. The album debuted at number four on the US Billboard 200. Musgraves co-wrote all 13 tracks and co-produced the album with Daniel Tashian and Ian Fitchuk.

Let yourself be carried away by songs that flower like an Indian summer, and their strikingly moving melodies In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Kacey Musgraves said she was influenced by Neil Young, Sade and the Bee Gees! Quite an eclectic and surprising triumvirate, but after listening to Golden Hour right the way through, it makes sense, kind of. Without coming off soppy, these love songs offer real emotion and a new sincerity. It might be the fact of her recent wedding to colleague Ruston Kelly that colours this record with love with a capital L. While country fundamentalists might switch off, the curious would do well to listen to Golden Hour to the end.

A third album, this time slanted a little more towards pop.

In Spring 2018, Kacey Musgraves gave them their answer. We alternate between pure country and pop country, by way of some numbers with much more of a slightly retro rock flavour, with banjo and pedal steel guitar, or, going the other way, languorous violins… Without completely revolutionising the genre or rattling the walls of Nashville, this daughter of Golden, Texas certainly left fans wondering what her next album was going to look like… Where a song looks to be setting out on a well-worn, cliché-ridden path, our young cowgirl gives a sharp tug on the reins and really makes the writing shine. And it shows in her lyrics about homosexuality, dope smoking and single mothers – themes that are none too popular on the more conservative fringe of American country music… for Pageant Material, her second work, which came out in summer 2015, the Texan continued in much the same vein. In 2013 when, to everyone’s surprise, the impeccable Same Trailer Different Park won the Grammy Award for best country album, Kacey Musgraves wisely dodged the pitfalls of Nashville: namely, the temptation to become yet another knock-off Taylor Swift.
