It’s finally here! Kacey Musgraves releases her debut album, Same Trailer, Different Park, TODAY. 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.
