Kacey Musgraves Covers “Kill Bill” by SZA on BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge

Kacey Musgraves set to release her new album, Middle of Nowhere, during a recent performance on BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge the country pop star  performed her take on the ‘SOS‘ hit “Kill Bill.” Complete with a slide guitar and a soft piano, Musgraves imbued the cult favorite R&B track with a country atmosphere, completing the performance with a black cowboy hat.

Musgraves’ sweet voice made a perfect contrast to the lyrics of SZA’s No. 1 hit, a song about revenge in which the R&B artist quite literally imagines killing her ex. The cover transformed “Kill Bill” into a sweet-and-sour murder ballad. Later, she also performed her new single, ‘Dry Spell,’ Musgraves debuted selection of tracks from the upcoming record during her surprise Coachella 2026 set last weekend.

Middle of Nowhere will follow up 2024’s Deeper Well, which saw Musgraves take home a Grammy at the 2025 awards, winning in the Best Country Song category for the album’s track “The Architect”. Check out the performances below.
