Golden Hour by Kacey Musgraves
Golden Hour is an album by Kacey Musgraves, released in 2018. 3 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 25 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Slow Burn”, on 17 lists with a best position of #3.
Golden Hour, Kacey Musgraves' fourth album, arrived on March 30, 2018, and it's the sound of a Nashville songwriter deciding the country rulebook was optional. She co-wrote all 13 songs and co-produced with Daniel Tashian and Ian Fitchuk, and together they let a haze of disco shimmer, electropop pulse, electronica and soft yacht-rock glide seep into the country-pop bones.
It's a record that glows rather than twangs, warm and unhurried, sweet without going soft in the head. At the 61st Grammy Awards the album and its songs went four for four: Album of the Year and Best Country Album, plus Best Country Solo Performance for "Butterflies" and Best Country Song for "Space Cowboy". The Country Music Association Awards had already named it Album of the Year.
