Kacey Musgraves releases her debut album, Same Trailer, Different Park, on Tuesday (March 19th). The Texas native co-wrote and co-produced every song on the album, including her Top 10 hit, “Merry Go Round,” and her latest single, “Blowin’ Smoke.” Kacey says she hopes folks who pick up a copy of her album will identify with all of the songs. “Hopefully, when people hear Same Trailer, they will…obviously love it, but also I hope they walk away with just knowing that I’m influenced by so many different kinds of things, and I hope they just connect in some way,” says Kacey. “I mean, if I can make somebody feel something then I feel like I’ve done my job as a songwriter. So, that’s my favorite part — just being inspired by something I went through and seeing other people say, ‘I get it, like I went through that, too.’”

Catch Kacey on NBC’s Today Show on Tuesday (March 19th) or on tour with Kenny Chesney and his No Shoes Nation Tour.
