THE LIVE SHOW
What Kacey Musgraves concerts are like
A Kacey Musgraves concert is relaxed and glowing rather than loud. She sings with a band that includes pedal steel and banjo, under soft, colourful lighting, and moves from Slow Burn and Butterflies to the singalong humour of Follow Your Arrow and Merry Go 'Round.
Rainbow is often played quietly, sometimes near-solo at the piano, and High Horse turns the room into a disco for a few minutes. She talks to the crowd with dry, gentle humour, and the audience ranges from country fans in boots to indie listeners who found her through Golden Hour.
Tips for the Austin show
- Keep quiet during Rainbow and the acoustic moments; the crowd is respectful of those songs.
- Cowboy hats and western outfits are common, but nobody expects them.
New to the music? Golden Hour is the essential album, with Same Trailer Different Park for her early country songs.

Getting to Moody Center ATX
Moody Center ATX is the venue for Kacey Musgraves' Austin show. The listed address is 2001 Robert Dedman Drive, Austin. Check the venue's entry times and bag policy before the day, and plan your route home in advance, as large concerts often finish when public transport is at its busiest.
Travelling to Austin for the concert
A Thursday date usually means less competition for rooms than at the weekend, but getting home the same night after a weekday concert is hard, so staying over is the safer plan.
With a 19:30 start, the show will end late in the evening. Check the last train or bus back to where you are staying before you set off, and fly in the day before so a delayed flight does not cost you the concert.
