Country Heat Weekly

Saddle up for a fun, unfiltered conversation with Kacey Musgraves as she spills the stories behind her new album Middle of Nowhere.. In this candid chat, Kacey opens up about dreams that extended beyond her hometown, turning life lessons into musical therapy, and collaborating with fellow Texans Willie Nelson and Miranda Lambert. Plus, the crazy story behind that album cover photo you've got to hear to believe!
Kelly and Amber dive into the wildly relatable and hilarious side of Kacey—from somehow losing a Kacey Musgraves look-alike contest (yes, really) to armadillo races, iconic Texas dance halls, and life south of the border. Plus they plan an epic birthday party for Kacey's upcoming tour.

In this week's Hot Topics, Kelly and Amber relive some of their favorite interview moments and performance highlights from Stagecoach 2026.
Next week on the podcast: everything you need to know about Country Music's Party of the Year: The 2026 ACM Awards!
