This past weekend (August 23 and August 25), singer-songwriter Kacey Musgraves brought her multiple-Grammy winning 2018 album “Golden Hour” (MCA Nashville) to LA’s Greek Theatre for her Oh, What A World Tour II.
This extension of the North American run of her Oh, What a World Tour comes after she performed overseas in 2018 and has spent most of this year on the road for a large string of shows in the U.S. and Canada.
Musgraves’s latest and fourth collection, “Golden Hour” was nominated four times at the 2019 Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year. The performer won all four honors, as well as Album of the Year at both the 2018 CMA Awards and 2019 ACM Awards.
From start to finish, her sold-out concert on Friday (Aug 23) was an absolute delight and clearly everyone in attendance felt the same way. The extremely loud show was filled to the brim was crazy-happy-excited and glittery concert-goers. Yes, many
attendees were wearing their brightest and shimmering outfits. The whole show was incredibly colorful and rainbow lights decorated the stage throughout Kacey’s set.
Dressed in what looked a little like an elegant black pajama set, the gorgeous entertainer opened her first Greek show of the tour with the hit “Slow Burn” and continued to perform every track on “Golden Hour.” Each one somehow receiving more applause then the next.
She also sang a few of her older hits including “Merry Go ‘Round,” “Family Is Family” and “Follow Your Arrow.” For each song, at times it was hard to sometimes hear Musgraves’s voice over the massive crowd sing-along. During many tunes, she even stayed quiet and let them sing the choruses for her. She held out the mic to the crowd and smiled and mouthed the words in case anyone needed reminding of the words. They certainly didn’t though.
Kacey also graced the audience with a fun rendition of Gloria Gaynor’s 1978 big single “I Will Survive” and her well-known cover of Brooks & Dunn’s “Neon Moon.”
Musgraves didn’t talk a lot during the night but when she did it was important messages about enjoying the night and being in the moment. She also thanked the audience for being there many times and selling out the show.
“I want everyone tonight to feel themselves tonight and have fun. I know we all have stuff going on.”
Between her upbeat personality and authentic messages to the crowd and the rainbow colors, it was hard not to leave this concert feeling happy and positive about life. It was definitely an excellent way to kick off the Summer weekend! This sold-out Oh, What a World Tour: II will continue to see Kacey play the biggest venues of her career, including two nights at NYC’s Radio City Music Hall and her first-ever headlining arena show at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena with special guest Maggie Rogers (see full list of dates below).
