As country music sensation Megan Moroney continues to build on her meteoric rise, following the success of her sophomore album, Am I Okay? released in July 2024. The Georgia-born singer-songwriter, known for her “emo cowgirl” style and heartfelt lyrics, has been teasing new music throughout 2025. She recently shared her third studio album remains now has an official release date of October 24, 2025. Fans are buzzing with anticipation based on her recent announcements, interviews, and single drops. Here’s a comprehensive look at what we know about the project, including potential tracks, thematic shifts, and speculation around its arrival.
Recent Releases Keeping Fans Engaged
Moroney hasn’t left her audience waiting idly. In 2025, she’s dropped several projects that bridge the gap between Am I Okay? and her next full-length effort.
- Live Album Surprise: On October 9, 2025—her 28th birthday—Moroney released her first-ever live album, Am I Okay? Tour (Live), capturing performances from her sold-out 2025 North American tour. Recorded in cities like Charleston, Boston, and Charlotte, the 24-track collection includes fan favorites, heartfelt speeches, and special moments like crowning a young fan “Miss Am I Okay? Tour” during “Miss Universe.” Moroney shared on social media that the release helps her “come to terms with this chapter ending” while allowing fans to “relive these memories forever.”
- New Singles Teasing What’s Next: Moroney kicked off post-Am I Okay? era with “6 Months Later,” released on June 20, 2025. The fiery track, produced by longtime collaborator Kristian Bush, details a heartbreak set in November 2019, with lyrics like “Put a hole in my heart, watched it bleed.” It’s one of her first new songs since Am I Okay? and has been hailed as a summer anthem. More recently, she announced “Beautiful Things,” set for release on October 24, 2025. This single follows the momentum of her sophomore album and is expected to showcase her evolving sound.
These releases demonstrate Moroney’s productivity, with Bush returning as producer to maintain the signature blend of raw emotion and catchy melodies that defined her earlier work.
Details on the Third Album: Themes, Songs, and Progress
Moroney’s third studio album is shaping up to be a departure from the heartbreak-heavy “emo cowgirl” vibe of her previous records, while still retaining some of that signature melancholy. In interviews, she’s described it as “light and carefree and happy,” with a “lot more carefree, sassy and fun” energy overall. However, she assures fans there will still be “a few sad songs” to honor her roots.
Progress updates have come directly from Moroney. In June 2025, she posted on X (formerly Twitter), “wait i think the album is written,” signaling completion of the songwriting phase. By September, she told People magazine that it was “probably like 80% written,” indicating ongoing refinements. She’s been spotted in the studio and writing room, building hype through social media snippets and live performances.
Potential tracks and features include:
- “6 Months Later” (already released, likely to appear on the album).
- “Beautiful Things” (upcoming single, teased as an unreleased gem).
- “Heartbreaker” (another unreleased track mentioned in previews).
- “You Had To Be There” (a collaboration with Kenny Chesney, expected to be included).
The album may also introduce a new “color theme,” continuing Moroney’s tradition of thematic rollouts—like orange for her debut Lucky and blue for Am I Okay?. Details on the exact hue remain under wraps, but it’s part of her meticulous branding.
Expected Release Date and Speculation
Moroney has hinted at a timely rollout. Fan discussions on X and Instagram suggest it could arrive before 2026, with unconfirmed rumors pointing to November 7, 2025. These speculations stem from her rapid pace—Am I Okay? followed her 2023 debut Lucky by just over a year—and recent single releases that feel like lead-ins to a larger project. However all speculation has gone away as she dropped an October 24, 2025 date on Instagram.
In the meantime, she’s wrapping up tour dates, including sold-out shows in Dallas, and focusing on new music that promises to elevate her status in country music.
With her blend of vulnerability and sass, Moroney’s third album is poised to be another chart-topper. Stay tuned to her social media (@_megmoroney on X) for the latest updates—emo cowgirls and cowboys won’t want to miss it.
