LOS ANGELES – Kacey Musgraves took home four Grammys — including album of the year for "Golden Hour" — on Sunday evening. However, despite winning top honors on music's biggest night, the country star's record reportedly received little-to-no air time on country radio.
Speaking to reporters backstage, the 30-year-old singer was asked if she thinks the wins would help get her music on the radio, to which Musgraves replied: "To me, radio isn't necessarily the mark of what makes good music.
"That's not what I had in mind when I was making this album," she continued. "It's been really amazing and incredible to see it do some really wild, gratifying, unbelievable things — going further than I ever thought that it could. I'm just really thankful. I think streaming was a big part of it... My publicist for working his a-- off. My band and my road family working very hard.
"And ultimately, I feel like it just lets me know that it doesn't really matter where someone hears your music, it's if they connect or not," Musgraves concluded.
