Kacey Musgraves Cancels 3 Tour Dates, Reverting to Original 'Middle of Nowhere' Schedule

3 articles · Updated · Fox News · Jul 26

Summary

  • Three 'Middle of Nowhere' stops—Chicago on Aug. 20, Boston on Aug. 29 and Brooklyn on Sept. 2—were canceled before the tour begins, with Ticketmaster issuing automatic refunds.
  • Sources told Fox News Digital the 37-year-old singer is doing well and that the cuts stemmed from a scheduling snafu after extra dates were added, prompting a return to her original commitments.
  • That means the tour was always meant to start on Aug. 21, which coincides with Musgraves' birthday, rather than with the scrapped Chicago date.
  • The changes hit a tour supporting May album 'Middle of Nowhere,' which debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and reached No. 1 on top album sales.
