Country Superstar Megan Moroney Rings In The Holidays With Surprise Release Of Blue Christmas …Duh

COUNTRY SUPERSTAR MEGAN MORONEY RINGS IN THE HOLIDAYS WITH SURPRISE RELEASE OF BLUE CHRISTMAS …DUH

Sony Music Nashville/Columbia Records singer/songwriter Megan Moroney kicked off the holiday season with Blue Christmas …duh — a surprise EP featuring two all-new original songs and a heart-melting rendition of the timeless holiday classic “Blue Christmas.” Go here (preferred music platform) to check out Blue Christmas …duh now. With its title nodding to the signature color for Moroney’s blockbuster sophomore album Am I Okay? — a summer 2024 release that marked the year’s third-biggest Billboard 200 debut from a female Country artist — Blue Christmas …duh begins with a glorious bang on “All I Want for Christmas is a Cowboy.” Written by Moroney, Ben Williams, Mackenzie Carpenter, and Micah Carpenter the hip-swinging anthem serves up a bit of feel-good holiday honky-tonk, laying down hard-thumping rhythms and saloon-style piano melodies as Moroney reveals what’s at the top of her wishlist.  Meanwhile, the track’s handclap-backed chorus shows off the whip-smart sass that’s made her one of the brightest new stars in Country (“Put him in some new Luccheses/Make him call me baby/'Cause swear I’ve been good all year/Oh please Santa please/All I want for Christmas is a cowboy/Who only wants me. Produced by her frequent collaborator Kristian Bush, Blue Christmas …duh next drifts into the slow-burning ache of “Christmas Morning” — a gorgeous new addition to Country’s time-honored lineage of holiday heartbreak songs. Also written by Moroney, Ben Williams, Mackenzie Carpenter, and Micah Carpenter, the mandolin-laced ballad tells the tale of a Christmastime breakup (from the chorus: “'Tis the season, you’ve got reasons/I know I’ve got mine/We’ve been falling apart all year and today I can’t ignore it/Baby when did our love stop feeling like Christmas morning”). In the latest example of the Emo Cowgirl’s phenomenal gift for giving words to the most painful of feelings, “Christmas Morning” offers up plenty of one-liners that cut right to the heart (e.g., “What a bad day for the truth”). In a breathtaking finale, Blue Christmas …duh closes out with Moroney’s unforgettably lovely cover of “Blue Christmas,” bringing soulful steel-guitar tones and a softly stunning vocal performance to her update of the Billy Hayes/Jay Johnson-penned tune made famous by Elvis Presley. With each song accompanied by a specially created lyric video, the EP follows the recent arrival of Am I Okay? (I’ll Be Fine) — the deluxe edition of Moroney’s critically acclaimed and massively successful sophomore album. A No. 1 hit on Apple Music’s Top Country Albums chart (and No. 3 hit on Apple Music’s all-genre Top Albums chart), Am I Okay? (I’ll Be Fine) features three brand-new tracks: “Bless Your Heart,” “I'll Be Fine,” and “Break It Right Back” — a piano-laced ballad streamed over 1 MILLION times on its very first day of release.

Tracklist for Blue Christmas …duh by Megan Moroney: “All I Want for Christmas is a Cowboy” (Megan Moroney, Ben Williams, Mackenzie Carpenter, Micah Carpenter) “Christmas Morning” (Megan Moroney, Ben Williams, Mackenzie Carpenter, Micah Carpenter) “Blue Christmas” (Billy Hayes, Jay Johnson)

ABOUT MEGAN MORONEY:

One of Country’s biggest breakout stars in recent years, Megan Moroney first burst onto the scene with her RIAA 2X PLATINUM hit single ‘Tennessee Orange’ — an immediate smash showcasing her true-to-life storytelling, unforgettable vocals, and strong-minded yet fiercely  sensitive point of view.

Along with notching her first No. 1 at Country radio and landing on coveted lists like the Los Angeles Times’ “100 best songs of 2023,” ‘Tennessee Orange’ soon found the Sony Music Nashville/Columbia Records artist winning Breakthrough Female Video of  the Year at the CMT Music Awards and making her debut appearances on major TV shows like TODAY, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Good Morning America, and New Year's Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash.

A Georgia native who got her start singing covers with her dad and brother — and later  began penning her own songs while studying accounting at the University of Georgia — Moroney made her massively acclaimed full-length debut with 2023’s LUCKY: a powerhouse body of work that turned up on best-of-the-year lists from leading outlets like the New York Times, Rolling Stone, Billboard, and the Associated Press (who hailed her as a “Gen Z songwriter  with Taylor Swift-level acuity”).

Produced by Kristian Bush and built on a timeless collision of Country, Folk, and Southern Rock, LUCKY also revealed the lived-in intimacy and electrifying impact of her songwriting on tracks like ‘I’m Not Pretty’ (her current single, praised by Billboard as a “cheeky, defiant clapback”).

As she continued her meteoric rise, the Nashville-based musician earned nominations by CMA, ACM, and Billboard Music Awards, in addition to appearing at The GRAMMY Museum in Los Angeles as part of its illustrious SPOTLIGHT series inthe midst of her sold-out THE LUCKY TOUR — a fall 2023 run that brought her magnetic live show to iconic venues across the U.S. Recently featured on Forbes’ 30 Under 30, MusicRow’s Next Big Thing Class of 2024, and Country Radio Seminar’s New Faces of Country Music, she kicked off 2024 with her stunning new song ‘No Caller ID’. 

With more new music on the way —and over 824 MILLION total global streams to date — Moroney will join Kenny Chesney on his SUN DOWN 2024 TOUR and take the stage at Stagecoach Festival in April.
