Middle Of Nowhere is an assured country homecoming that pairs twangy textures with pop, folk, easy-listening polish, and flashes of dance, waltz, and mariachi color. Musgraves' tender, witty vocals animate catchy songs about lost love, solitude, desire, and rural identity, though occasional awkward lyrics slightly temper its otherwise cohesive impact.
