Kacey Musgraves and Nickel Creek captivated audiences with a live acoustic cover of SZA's smash hit ‘Kill Bill’ during Musgraves' concert at TD Garden in Boston on September 7, 2024. The performance is part of her ongoing ‘Deeper Well’ tour, which launched its North American leg last week. Musgraves is accompanied on this tour by Nickel Creek, Madi Diaz, Father John Misty, and Lord Huron.
The cover of ‘Kill Bill’ showcased Musgraves' blend of country and pop, as she lent a fresh acoustic twist to SZA's 2022 original. Fans shared their experiences via social media, posting videos from the performance.
SZA herself contributed to the song's legacy last year, releasing a collection of reimagined versions of ‘Kill Bill,’ which included vocals-only, instrumental, and sped-up versions. Musgraves’ rendition in Boston adds to her string of covers; she previously performed a snippet of Chappell Roan's ‘Pink Pony Club’ in Pennsylvania while starting her tour. Additionally, back in August, she joined Sabrina Carpenter on stage at the Outside Lands Festival to perform ‘These Boots Are Made For Walkin’’, further showcasing her versatility.
Despite mixed reviews on her latest album, ‘Deeper Well,’ which NME recently rated three stars, Musgraves' live performances have garnered positive attention. NME described her recent London show as a ‘spellbinding smash,’ illustrating her ability to breathe new life into her material.
