Six-time Grammy award-winning singer-songwriter Kacey Musgraves has announced that she will release her highly-anticipated fourth studio album Star-Crossed on Sept. 10 via Interscope Records / UMG Nashville.

Star-Crossed is Musgraves’ first album of new material from the Grammy winner since 2018’s Golden Hour. Musgraves collaborated once again with co-producers and writers, Ian Fitchuk and Daniel Tashian, and recorded the album in Nashville in under three weeks.

The 15-song collection is structured as a modern-day tragedy in three acts, with themes of heartache and healing.

Musgraves will also release Star-Crossed: The Film, directed by Bardia Zeinali, on Sept. 10 via Paramount+. The title track written by Musgraves, Tashian, and Fitchuk, along with the film’s trailer, are both out now.

Star-Crossed: The Film takes the music from the studio to the screen with visuals envisioned by Musgraves and Zeinali and shot by Academy Award-nominated cinematographer Matthew Libatique (A Star Is Born, Black Swan). The 50-minute movie was filmed over a 10 day shoot in Los Angeles and features cameos from Emmy Award-winner Eugene Levy, Victoria Pedretti (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, You), singer-songwriter Princess Nokia, Symone (RuPaul’s Drag Race winner) and comedian Megan Stalter.
