I have no idea what’s happening here, but I like it. Kacey Musgraves surprised what I imagine were very unsuspecting fans who were out for a night on Broadway last night when she showed up to Robert’s Western World in Nashville dressed as Ronnie Dunn, of Brooks & Dunn, to sing “Neon Moon.” Kacey was of course featured on the duo’s first edition of their Reboot album which was released in 2019, and her version of with Kix and Ronnie remains my favorite out of both projects to this day (they did a Reboot II in 2024 with different artists). There’s something so melancholy and vibey about what she did with the production, and it has something I just can’t put my finger on that makes it so alluring. I normally would never want to hear such a classic with any sort of new production, but she really nailed this and I still listen to it all the time. But back to her appearance at Robert’s… Kacey jumped onstage in the full Ronnie get-up, with the right jeans, shirt and belt, and she even had drawn on beard and wig… I mean, she got so detailed she even had some of Ronnie’s most prominent tattoos on too. There’s really not much context for this, so I don’t really know what made her decide to do it, but it’s hilarious and I’m actually surprised anyone even figured out it was her, but that voice is unmistakable: @_tayhendrix Kacey Musgraves as Ronnie Dunn performing Neon Moon at Robert’s Western World #kaceymusgraves #robertswesternsworld #nashville #countrymusic #brooksanddunn @kaceymusgraves @Brooks & Dunn @Robert’s Western World ♬ original sound – Taylor Hendrix Here’s another angle: @nashvillexp @kaceymusgraves singing Neon Moon at @Robert’s Western World is my spirit animal (: @robertswesternworld) #Nashville #615 #KaceyMusgraves #Country #BrooksAndDunn ♬ original sound – Nashville Experience In this video, you can hear fans start to figure out it’s Kacey which is pretty funny: @nashvillexp Just @kaceymusgraves dressed as Ronnie Dunn at @Robert’s Western World on a Nashville Saturday night Be sure to check out @robertswesternworld for the full video #Nashville #615 #KaceyMusgraves #Country #BrooksAndDunn ♬ original sound – Nashville Experience Kacey announced her sixth studio album Middle of Nowhere just a couple weeks ago, which was produced by Kacey alongside longtime collaborators Daniel Tashian and Ian Fitchuk. Kacey is a proud Texas girl, and so the album draws on plenty of inspiration from her home state, and considering there’s a sign in her tiny, unincorporated, no-stoplight hometown of Golden, Texas, with a population of under 300 that reads “Golden, TX: Somewhere in the Middle of Nowhere,” that sparked the idea for the title track and much of the theme for the entire album. Middle of Nowhere is due out everywhere on May 1st, and Kacey will also feature several duets on the record including collaborations with icon Willie Nelson, bluegrass phenom Billy Strings, and South African musician Gregory Alan Isakov, and yes, that long-awaited, seemingly improbable duet with Miranda Lambert is coming on a song called “Horses and Divorces.” “Neon Moon” with Kacey Musgraves  The post Kacey Musgraves Dresses Up As Ronnie Dunn For Surprise Performance Of “Neon Moon” At Robert’s Western World first appeared on Whiskey Riff.
