MEGAN MORONEY SHARES DELUXE EDITION OF BLOCKBUSTER SOPHOMORE ALBUM AM I OKAY?

Today marks the much-anticipated release of Am I Okay? (I’ll Be Fine) — the deluxe edition of Sony Music Nashville/Columbia Records singer/songwriter Megan Moroney’s widely acclaimed sophomore album. Featuring three brand-new tracks, the newly expanded version of Am I Okay? arrives just months after Moroney scored the year’s third-biggest Billboard 200 debut from a female Country artist. Go here to listen to Am I Okay? (I’ll Be Fine) now.

Announced by Moroney earlier this week, Am I Okay? (I’ll Be Fine) includes a selection of songs she’s recently teased during her must-see live show and on social media. Both written by Moroney, David "Messy" Mescon, Rob Hatch, and Ben Williams, “Break It Right Back” and “I'll Be Fine” offer the latest evidence of her enormous talent for penning truly unforgettable heartbreak ballads. To that end, “Break It Right Back” takes the form of a piano-laced stunner about the shattered hopes of falling for someone too good to be true (inspiring over 22k creates after Moroney teased it on TikTok), while “I'll Be Fine” serves as a heavy-hearted response to the album’s wildly hopeful and Country radio-dominating title track (from the chorus: “If I can get past this dark and make it to daylight/With this bottle of wine and my feelings on ice/I’ll be fine”).

Meanwhile, on “Bless Your Heart” (written by Moroney, Jessi Alexander, Connie Harrington, and Jessie Jo Dillon), the Emo Cowgirl shows her more playful side with a sweetly scathing comeback to those who try to take her down (“Must be hard being as mean as you are/Shooting daggers, throwing stones/From a self-appointed throne/I’m good with words, could make you hurt/But I won’t twist the knife/I’m just glad I’m everything you aren’t/Bless your heart”).

All produced by Moroney’s longtime collaborator Kristian Bush and recorded at Blackbird Studios in Nashville, Am I Okay? (I’ll Be Fine)’s three new tracks make for a thrilling addition to one of the year’s most critically lauded Country albums. Along with debuting at No. 9 on the Billboard 200, the follow-up to her powerhouse debut LP Lucky earned praise from major outlets like Associated Press (“a heartbreak-filled rollercoaster ride of a sophomore album, filled with quotable kiss-offs and evolved compositions”), Variety (“establishes that she’s one of traditional-leaning country’s best and brightest new standard-bearers, upholding the most essential of the old values in a broadly beguiling new package”), Nashville Lifestyles (“a case study in the art of honest storytelling”), and many more. In addition releasing the deluxe edition digitally, Moroney will soon release Am I Okay? (I’ll Be Fine) on vinyl on December 13. Pre-order the vinyl here.
