Kacey Musgraves gave no explanation for nixing three of her \u201cMiddle of Nowhere\u201d tour dates \u2014 including opening night \u2014 just weeks before she was set to hit the road. <\/p>\n

According to the Daily Mail, the Grammy winning musician quietly cleared three shows \u2014 opening night in Chicago on August 20, a Boston show on August 29 and a Brooklyn performance on September 2 \u2014 with fans only receiving a Ticketmaster email informing them of the cancelations.<\/p>\n

Per the outlet, no explanation was given for the canceled shows. <\/p>\n

A rep for the country star did not immediately respond to Page Six\u2019s request for comment on Saturday. <\/p>\n

The North American leg of her \u201cMiddle of Nowhere\u201d tour was expected to launch in Chicago next month and hit 25 cities before winding things down in Seattle in late October. <\/p>\n

In January 2027, she\u2019s scheduled to perform in Australia before heading to England and Scotland in February. <\/p>\n

Musgraves, 37, released her sixth studio album, \u201cMiddle of Nowhere,\u201d on May 1. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe bulk of this record was made during the longest single period of my life,\u201d the singer previously said in a statement. <\/p>\n

\u201cAnd I found that for the first time, it actually felt incredible being alone and existing in a space not defined by anyone else. I became fascinated with the concept of liminal space, both geographical and emotional.\u201d<\/p>\n

She added, \u201cWe don\u2019t linger in these transitional, empty spaces long enough and rush to define where or whatever is next. I became so at ease with being in the \u2018middle of nowhere\u2019 in many senses and sitting in the un-comfort of the undefined. I had a lot of time for creative ambling and leaning into myself in different ways; horses, humor, writing with my early collaborators again, and living out my very simple, inspired life between Texas, Tennessee, and Mexico.\u201d<\/p>\n

Musgraves is just the latest artist to cancel concerts. Earlier this week, Harry Styles canceled a concert at Estadio Morumbis in S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil, due to a \u201chealth issue\u201d \u2014 a month\u00a0after collapsing on stage in England.<\/p>\n

Just hours before the concert was set to begin on Tuesday, Live Nation Brasil wrote on X, \u201cWe deeply regret to inform you that the Harry Styles show scheduled for Tuesday, July 21, 2026, at MorumBIS has been canceled due to a health issue on the tour.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

The company reassured fans that tickets would be refunded. <\/p>\n

And in May, the Pussycat Dolls pulled the plug on their North American reunion tour dates due to rumored poor ticket sales. <\/p>\n

Post Malone and Meghan Trainor have also canceled tour dates this year, and are said to have done so due to what\u2019s been dubbed \u201cBlue Dot Fever\u201d \u2014 a term referencing blue dots showing available seats on Ticketmaster\u2019s seating charts that\u2019s become a euphemism for poor ticket sales.<\/p>\n
