ABOUT
MEGAN MORONEY:
A
Country phenomenon with major star power and massive talent to match, Megan
Moroney is the rare artist to earn icon status soon after breaking onto the
scene. With over 1.5 BILLION total global streams to date, the Georgia-bred
singer/songwriter kicked off the latest era of her formidable career with her
critically acclaimed sophomore album Am I Okay?: a July 2024 release
that debuted at No. 9 on the Billboard 200, emerged as the year’s third-biggest
debut from a female Country artist, and won rave reviews from many of the music
world’s leading publications (including Rolling Stone, The New York Times,
Variety, Billboard, American Songwriter, and more).
Featuring
the Emo Cowgirl’s post-breakup ballad “No Caller ID” — a track that shattered
the record for the biggest Country female song debut in streams in the U.S. — Am
I Okay? continues the meteoric rise first set in motion with “Tennessee
Orange,” a 2X PLATINUM #1 hit included on her 2023 blockbuster debut LUCKY.
Soon
after Lucky’s arrival, Moroney began amassing a steady stream of
accolades, including winning Breakthrough Female Video of the Year at
the 2023 CMT Music Awards, MusicRow’s Breakout Artist of the
Year at the 2024 CountryBreakout Awards, and New Female Artist of the
Year at the 59th ACM Awards (where she reigned as the most nominated
female artist with SIX NODS), in addition to racking up nominations from the CMA,
iHeart, CMT Music, and Billboard Music Awards.
With
her live experience including selling out three consecutive headline tours,
playing stadiums across the country as support for Kenny Chesney, and taking
the stage at high-profile festivals like Stagecoach and Lollapalooza, Moroney
will head overseas in September for the GEORGIA GIRL TOUR — a 15-date
headlining run bringing her notoriously dazzling live show to audiences all
over the UK and Europe.
