Interscope Records and UMG Nashville announced a unique partnership under which the two labels will jointly release the forthcoming new album by multi-GRAMMY Award-winning singer/songwriter Kacey Musgraves. The album is set for release later this year.
Musgraves first received massive critical acclaim and recognition with the release of her gold-certified major label debut album Same Trailer Different Park (2013). The album debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart, making Musgraves the first solo female in 5 years to top the chart with a rookie release and only the seventh to do so in Nielsen SoundScan’s 22- year history. Same Trailer Different Park earned Musgraves 2 GRAMMY Awards for Best Country Album and Best Country Song (“Merry Go ‘Round”), 2 CMA Awards for “New Artist of the Year” and “Song of the Year” (“Follow Your Arrow”), and an ACM Award for Album of the Year. Musgraves’ follow-up album Pageant Material (2015), earned Musgraves her second No. 1 debut on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart and soaring to No. 3 on the Billboard 200 chart.
