Kacey Musgraves Confirms New Album, ‘Deeper Well,’ & Shares Folk-Infused Title Track

Kacey Musgraves will issue a new album, Deeper Well, on March 15 via Interscope/MCA Nashville. The seven-time Grammy-winning singer-songwriter heralded Deeper Well with a music video for the title track.

Recorded at the legendary Electric Lady studios in New York City, Musgraves drew inspiration for the album from the energy and rich musical history of Manhattan’s Greenwich Village.

“I was seeking some different environmental energy,” Musgraves stated, “and Electric Lady has the best mojo. Great ghosts.”

Kacey teamed back up with familiar collaborators Daniel Tashian and Ian Fitchuk to co-produce the follow-up to her 2021 album, star-crossed. While Musgraves wrote most of Deeper Well’s 14 tracks with Tashian and Fitchuk, she also reunited with Shane McAnally and Josh Osborne for “The Architect.”

Deeper Well sees Musgraves highlighting the “subtle nuances of life,” as per a press release, “focusing on moments of life that often go unnoticed… Saturn returns, cardinals embody a dead friend, love is given and taken, streets rush by, belongings are packed and old chapters deserted, new love blooms, jade bracelets serve as talismans, deep lessons emerge, small details define everything, the woods are a refuge and New York City serves as the same gleaming beacon as Oz.”

On Deeper Well’s title track and lead single, Musgraves stated:

“Sometimes you reach a crossroads. Winds change direction. What you once felt drawn to doesn’t hold the same allure,” she said, adding “you get blown off course but eventually find your footing and forage for new inspiration, new insight and deeper love somewhere else.”
