Country music star Megan Moroney canceled her Denver concert on Tuesday night after performing only three songs due to illness. The 28-year-old singer, known for hits like "Stupid" and "Medicine," announced the cancellation mid-set at Ball Arena, telling the audience she was "extremely sick" and unable to continue. Videos posted online showed Moroney tearfully addressing the crowd, apologizing and promising to reschedule the show.
In a since-expired Instagram story, Moroney confirmed the rescheduled date as August 27 and offered refunds to fans unable to attend. She emphasized her commitment to delivering a "100%" performance, stating she would not compromise the quality of the show. This marks the first time Moroney has had to cancel a concert in her career.
Moroney is currently on her "Cloud 9 Tour," which began in May and is set to conclude in October. The tour supports her third album, "Cloud 9," released in February, which includes collaborations with Kacey Musgraves and Ed Sheeran. The singer has previously spoken about her rigorous training regimen to prepare for the demands of touring, citing Kenny Chesney as an influence.
The cancellation comes amid a summer where several artists have had to reschedule performances due to health issues. In June, Lionel Richie postponed tour dates after feeling unwell during a show in St. Paul, Minnesota. Richie addressed the crowd, explaining he had experienced dizziness during his performance.
