Megan Moroney Says Her Loyal Fans Give Her Freedom To Be Vulnerable On ‘Cloud 9’ Album

Megan Moroney is approaching the release of her third studio album, Cloud 9, with zero fear. There’s no denying that her fanbase is loyal to the core, and thanks to their unwavering support, the country star says she isn’t afraid to wear her heart on her sleeve and allow them to hear all of the vulnerable stories on the upcoming project.

Serving as a co-writer on each of the 15 tracks, Moroney dives into experiences and emotions that were all pulled from real moments. Whether the Georgia native opening about love or heartbreak or the realities of life, she offers raw authenticity, something she knows her fans appreciate.

“I said this whole album with my chest,” she told Audacy’s Katie Neal. “I’m just like, it is what it is. I feel like I know I’ve got the best fans in the world, and they make me confident enough to where they’re going to get behind my songs, and they know that it’s coming from an honest, authentic place. And that just has given me more confidence as a songwriter to not give a crap what people are going to say about it.”

Prior to its February 20 release, listeners have gotten a few glimpses into the 15-track collection through songs like “Wish I Didn’t,” the GOLD-certified Country radio No. 1 smash “6 Months Later,” the Billboard Hot 100-charting Country radio hit “Beautiful Things,” and the title track.

Between these songs and the unreleased tracks Moroney has previewed across social media, it’s safe to say that fans are already getting eager to start singing them back to her on the upcoming Cloud 9 Tour.

The massive international headline trek will take Megan Moroney to some of the biggest arenas across North America, Europe, and the UK. She expressed a lot of excitement surround the run, teasing that the production will be on a completely new level.

“I can say that the thrust is in the shape of a nine. So that’s really fun. It’s so fun to, I’m like, what do you mean that I get to just ask for stuff and it gets done? I’m like, ‘how crazy would a nine thrust be?’ And they’re like, ‘oh, we could do that, easy.’ I’m like, ‘okay, period.’”

She went on to say that the atmosphere at every show will be best described as “dreamy” and “whimsical,” with plenty of exciting outfit changes to match. While there are still a few details to finalize, like the setlist, she promises fans it will be her “biggest and best tour yet.”

Moroney also recognizes the fact that the energy of her shows wouldn’t be the same without the room full of fans screaming back at her every night.

“My fans are just the best,” the “6 Months Later” singer gushed. “So getting to sing these songs every single night with them, even when I write the songs, one of my first thoughts is, ‘my fans are going to love this.’ And I think it’s an amazing connection that we have. I feel like my fans target audience is reached, you know what I mean? I have found my people.”

She continued, “I’m so excited. I love touring, and they make it really amazing. If they weren’t like they are, I don’t know if I could enjoy it as much as I do, just because touring is exhausting, mentally draining and you’re never home and you miss things, but they make it worth it. A hundred percent.”

Cloud 9, Megan Moroney’s third studio album, will arrive on Friday, February 20. To celebrate she has announced the Meet Me on Cloud 9 limited run, which will find her performing in nine cities in nine days, bringing the brand-new collection of songs to life each night surrounded by her biggest supporters.

She will kick things off with an album release show in New York City and continue with stops in Richmond, Nashville, Athens, Newport, Kansas City, Denver, Salt Lake City and Scottsdale with tickets at just $9 a piece.
