Anticipation for Musgraves’ tour had grown in recent days in light of the musician releasing the video for her Middle of Nowhere track “Mexico Honey.” She took to Instagram on Wednesday, July 22, to share some of the video before returning over the weekend to share details about its production. “An ode to Mexico and the passion, color, texture, and love I have felt there.

Meanwhile on Musgraves’ Instagram, a post promoting her upcoming tour — including the now-cancelled dates — remains pinned to the star’s grid. “See you in the middle of nowhere,” she captioned the May 9 post.
The partial cancellation comes a little over one year after Musgraves, who rose to fame on Nashville Star in 2007 where she placed seventh overall, was forced to postpone a Nashville appearance due to a medical incident.
“Sooo I’m in Mexico with a f***ing broken rib,” she shared via her Instagram Stories on June 20 last year. “Wednesday night it was raining and I was running to grab some towels and had an extremely hard fall on some very slick tile I didn’t see. Thankful I didn’t smack my head but I landed very very hard on my back left ribcage and I broke rib number 6.”
Musgraves, who shared a photo of a chest X-ray at the time, continued, “This s*** is no joke. I’m in a lot of pain and doing ANYTHING is extremely difficult but I’m managing and being well taken care of. There is no physical way I can get on a plane and fly back to Nashville.”
