Kacey Musgraves’ Country Homecoming: The Singer on New Album ‘Middle of Nowhere,’ Ending Miranda Lambert Feud… and Embracing Self-Pleasure

It all comes out in the wash, as the saying goes, and that’s the upshot of Kacey Musgraves’ “Dry Spell,” which may be the sexiest song ever written about sexlessness. When asked for her favorite lyric on her new album, “Middle of Nowhere,” the singer doesn’t hesitate to cite a slyly bawdy line from the song.

“I’ve never talked about self-pleasure before,” she says. “So that’s a first for me: ‘Sitting on the washing machine.’ It’s not my grandma’s favorite line, but it’s mine, I guess.”
