Musgraves revealed on Zane Lowe’s Apple Music 1 show that “Deeper Well” is a vulnerable project, reflecting her desire to forge a profound emotional bond with her listeners.
“I think there’s hardly ever any mystery left in life, especially with artists. But at the same time, we’re here to connect,” the Golden Hour singer said. While she calls herself a “homebody” who cherishes privacy, Musgraves said she aims to “f—ing put it out there” with the new album.
It’s definitely my most grounded time period yet. I’m 35 now, and I know myself better than in previous years, previous albums, and I just feel like I’m right where I need to be,” Musgraves told. “I definitely think that the music and hopefully the scent will reflect that.”
