Kacey Musgraves listened to a lot of older music when she was getting ready to make her new album, Pageant Material.
“Leading up to this record, I was really listening to a lot of – and still am – Jim Croce. I really love his writing and his melodies, and of course Glen Campbell is a huge influence all around. I just, I love his music,” says Kacey. “Nancy Sinatra, of course Loretta, there’s even a little Ronnie Milsap and Stevie Wonder floating around in there. Charley Pride, Charlie Rich was another one. That era of country music is really inspiring to me.”
Check her out when she performs on ABC’s Good Morning America on Tuesday (June 23rd).
