Morris told Rolling Stone that traveled to Nashville to visit Kacey Musgraves. This visit completely changed the trajectory of Morris’ career. She explained, “She showed me around her publishing office. It opened up this world for me: People go in, Monday through Friday, sit down and write a song. I was like, ‘Holy s***, this is the best job ever.” Thanks to Musgraves, Morris was able to hone her songwriting skills, make industry connections, and catapult her career to award-winning heights. While the pair have yet to collaborate on a song together, both women have many more years of making music ahead of them and may still grace us with a duet.
