Kacey said that she was born six weeks prematurely and weighed only five pounds. She has a younger sister, Kelly Christine Sutton (née Musgraves), who is a photographer and at times has photographed some of Kacey's work including in the Cotswolds in South West England.
Kacey Musgraves started writing songs at age eight. Her first song, "Notice Me," was for her elementary-school graduation. She first learned to play music on the mandolin, then at age 12 started taking guitar lessons from a local musician named John DeFoore, which she later described as "one of the most important things that ever happened to me."

Influences

Musgraves lists Alison Krauss as one of her career role models, stating, "I mean, how many Grammys does she have? She's just remained solid and true and great, and I respect that".
Musgraves' favorite artist is John Prine and, in a tribute performance to him after his death in April 2020, she said that "my favorite quality of John's would be his sense of humor and it really influenced my songwriting a lot" and proclaimed "that man singlehandedly influenced me and my songwriting more than anyone else on this planet". She lists Lee Ann Womack as one of her childhood influences: "Lee Ann Womack is from near where I grew up in East Texas, so I've always looked up to her." Musgraves spoke of both Prine and Womack, "if I could sing it like Lee Ann would and say it like John would, then I feel like I've gotten somewhere".
Musgraves listed albums by Glen Campbell, Bobbie Gentry, Marty Robbins, Charley Pride, Merle Haggard, Roger Miller, and Jim Croce as influences on her sophomore album and an interview of hers with Rolling Stone Country cited Willie Nelson, Ray Price, Julie Miller, Patsy Cline, and Loretta Lynn as being other influences. In a Billboard interview, Musgraves said that she is a Dolly Parton fan, saying "Beauty, sex appeal, brains, wit, humor, beautiful songwriting, meaningful songwriting, no apologies for who she is, LGBTQ advocate long before it was even a thing or trendy or whatever... She's fearless and I admire her spirit a lot and she's very kind. She's very present when you're talking to her and I just really love her so much."
Noncountry artists whom Musgraves has mentioned as influences include Cher, Selena, Ryan Adams, Cake, Neil Young, Weezer, Imogen Heap, Bee Gees, Sade, and Electric Light Orchestra.

Lyrical themes and style

Critics have said Musgraves is a soprano. Her socially progressive lyrics draw attention in the generally conservative country music genre.
Her music has tackled topics such as LGBT acceptance, safe sexual intercourse, recreational marijuana use, and questioning religious sentiment. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Musgraves talked about criticism she faced for her rebellious lyrics. "I think throwing the rebel card out there is really cheap," she said. "The things I'm singing about are not controversial to me, I don't push buttons to push buttons. I talk about things that have made an impression on me that a lot of people everywhere are going through."
In August 2026, Musgraves asked her fans at a concert in Chicago to donate to the non-profit Young Center for Immigrant Children's Rights as her "birthday gift" to support unaccompanied children whose parents have been deported, which received a large cheer from the crowd. This received backlash from conservative commentators and fans.

Personal life

In 2014, in an interview with ABC Radio, Musgraves said her bandmate Misa Arriaga had been her boyfriend for several years after they first became friends and worked together.
Musgraves met Ruston Kelly in March 2016 at the Bluebird Café in Nashville. In May 2016, they had a songwriting date, and they began dating shortly after. Musgraves said that the song "Butterflies×Butterflies23 February 2018 · SingleSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 1 track1Butterflies3:39" from her album Golden Hour×Golden Hour30 March 2018 · Studio albumSpotifyYouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 13 tracksA1Slow BurnA2Lonely WeekendA3ButterfliesA4Oh, What a WorldA5MotherA6Love Is a Wild ThingB1Space CowboyB2Happy & SadB3Velvet ElvisB4Wonder WomanB5High HorseB6Golden HourB7Rainbow is about her courtship with Kelly; many other songs from the album were inspired by Kelly. On December 24, 2016, Musgraves and Kelly were engaged. They married on October 14, 2017, in Tennessee. The couple filed for divorce in July 2020 and it was finalized in September 2020. From 2021 to 2023, Musgraves was in a relationship with Cole Schafer, a poet.
