Megan Moroney Announces New Album ‘Cloud 9’

Country star says goodbye to her blue era and steps into the pink for new LP, out in February

Megan Moroney is officially ready to step into a new era. The country star has announced her third album Cloud 9, out on Feb. 20.

Moroney first teased the album announcement over the weekend with a video of her in the signature blue of her Am I Okay? era. She walked up to a window, opening the curtains to reveal a bright pink world outside.

“I am so excited for my fans and I to dive into this new world of Cloud 9 together,” Moroney shared in a statement. “Similar to the first two albums, it’s all written about honest, personal experiences, but these songs were written by the strongest, most confident version of myself I’ve ever been. My feet feel firmly planted in my artistry and it was fun to play around sonically, while still sticking to my roots of what my fans and I love. Cloud 9 is a state of mind, and I have no doubt this will be the best chapter yet.”

Moroney began rolling out her new music in June with lead single “6 Months Later.” In late October, she released “Beautiful Things.” Like her first two albums, Moroney worked with producer Kristian Bush, of the duo Sugarland.

Moroney’s 2024 LP Am I Okay? was a breakthrough for the country singer. It cracked the Top 10 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. Last year, she won New Artist of the Year at the CMAs. She will return to this year’s ceremony as one of the most-nominated artists, racking up six nods including Female Vocalist of the Year. She will perform at the ceremony on Nov. 19.
