“That time slowly diminished as everyone had their own thoughts as to how the songs should look. Petrus says at first they had just enough time to get a first pass of the show. We wanted each song to have its own personality and we tried to accentuate the music through the technology.” One of my personal challenges is to light each song in a stylized format. If I turned lights on it was generally for a specific reason. The most challenging part of this show was to not over light the stage. I found myself pulling lights out as opposed to adding them. This new record is fire,” enthuses Petrus. I’m also really grateful to Leslie Cohea, Bobby Simmons and Jason Owen for trusting the English guy with glasses.” “I’m so proud to know André Petrus, Danielle Edwards, Harry Boyde, Simon Roberts, George Sinclair, Ian Kinnersley, Steve Price and all of our crews from Christie Lites, ER Productions, SGPS ShowRig and Screenworks. Sinclair says their success was entirely down to the fantastic team who all worked tirelessly for weeks. “I always send us down a few blind alleys and there can be some unexpected roadblocks. We tried to deliver a show that had big, Instagram-able visual moments, but that never distracted from Kacey, her songs and her band.” She was very involved at all stages but also a very gracious collaborator, allowing the whole team to bring their own ideas.” Sinclair says every tour is never easy as there can always be a few wrong turns. “Kacey has exquisite taste and an amazing reference library on her phone-she can call up something really beautiful in milliseconds. We then all worked together to tweak the idea and to add detail,” he says. “It had the proscenium arch and the heart shaped stage, although in very different configurations. Sinclair notes that Kacey Musgraves’ management were looking for ideas for her star-crossed: unveiled tour, so Sinclair sent them something very rough, which seemed to connect.
