Megan Moroney turned New York City blue with her sold-out show at Radio City Music Hall.
Moroney, 27, took the stage on Wednesday, March 26 for the first of two concerts at the historic venue, and blew fans away with a 90-minute set full of the hits. The Georgia native might be considered an up-and-comer on the country scene, but her strong fandom says otherwise.
Concertgoers of all ages — from young girls with their moms to empty nesters with their husbands — screamed the lyrics to songs like “Lucky” on the top of their lungs. Her slower songs, like “Girl in the Mirror” and “Hope You’re Happy,” even had some fans in full-blown tears.
Aside from her meaningful lyrics, Moroney is known for her signature sass, which even comes through in some songs. Of course, the singer served up the shade to exes (and the haters) with sweetness while introducing some of her songs.
Ahead of “Sleep on My Side,” Moroney was not shy when telling fans that the song is about “a f—boy with a J name.” (If you know, you know.) Similarly, she called out “mean bitches” before launching into “Bless Your Heart.”
Moroney was also gracious to fans, even bringing one on stage during “Miss Universe,” and declared it was a “bucket list” item to sell out Radio City.
“NEW YORK CITY I loved meeting all of y’all this morning,” Moroney captioned an Instagram post on Thursday, March 27. “Last night was arguably the best night of my life???? let’s play another sold out show at radio city shall we?!”
Wednesday’s show was only the fourth on Moroney’s Am I Okay? Tour, but with a performance like that, the singer has a long music career in her future.
Months before hitting the road for the Am I Okay? Tour, Moroney spoke to Us Weekly exclusively about creating a live show around her second studio album.

“I’m very excited to play the whole album for everyone,” she teased in August 2024. “There [are] certain songs that I’m saving that I have never played live yet because I wanna save them for tour.”
At the time, Moroney predicted that her 2025 would be “very fun,” and it seems like she was right.
“I think the title track ‘Am I Okay?’ Has become my favorite to play live,” she said at the time. “Everyone just jumps up and down and sing along. If you’ve heard the chorus once and scream, ‘Oh my God, am I OK?’ at the end, it’s just kind of turns into a party at the end of the set.”
