Megan Moroney‘s album title says it all. After reaching No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with Cloud 9, the country singer/songwriter said she’s absolutely elated about the chart news.
On Monday (March 2) — the same day Billboard announced that Cloud 9 had dethroned J. Cole’s The Fall-Off for the top spot on the U.S. albums chart — Moroney gushed in a statement, “Not to be cliche but I’m on cloud 9!”
“I have to give credit to my fans, they’re the best in the world,” she continued of the feat. “To have them embrace an album like this is a dream come true. I can’t wait till we’re screaming these songs together on THE CLOUD 9 TOUR!”
Shortly afterward, Moroney posted another thank-you message on Instagram.
Featuring collaborations with Kacey Musgraves and Ed Sheeran, Cloud 9 dropped Feb. 20, marking the Georgia native’s third studio album. It succeeds 2023’s Lucky and 2024’s Am I Okay?, which reached Nos. 38 and 9 on the Billboard 200, respectively.
With Cloud 9 ruling the album tally the same week Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” shoots back up to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, the two charts are topped by two female country musicians for the first time in history. Langley celebrated her feat by sharing Billboard‘s article on her single’s second week at No. 1 with sobbing and mind-blown emojis on her Instagram Story.
The country star embarks on her first headlining tour of arenas, beginning in late May of 2026 in the U.S. and wrapping up in early October in Europe.
The singer is poised to move on from her “Am I Okay?” album era to touring behind a third album, “Cloud 9,” that is due out Feb. 9. Moroney recently stopped by the Variety CMA Awards Lounge in Nashville and talked about what is different about the forthcoming record — including a visual and thematic shift from blue to pink that will surely be reflected in audiences attending the tour.
