PHOTOS: Megan Moroney kicks in some country to get Boston Calling 2025 rolling
The self-proclaimed 'Emo Cowgirl' turned some heads in Boston on a rainy Friday night and it's not just because of those shiny white boots, bright red dress and matching lipstick.
Megan Moroney took the stage after Sheryl Crow and got the country fans in attendance ready for two-time Country Music Association Award for Entertainer of the Year winner Luke Combs with her own award-winning country twang.
Moroney, 27, went from watching Kenny Chesney in concert from section 312 of Mercedes-Benz Stadium in 2018, to dropping a duet with Mr. No Shoes Nation just a few weeks back called 'You Had to Be There.' She first got noticed when she opened for Chase Rice while she was a student at the University of Georgia.
Speaking of Moroney and Combs, she actually made an appearance in his 'Beer Never Broke My Heart' music video back in 2019, well before she dropped her latest chart-topper 'Am I OK?' and 2022 breakout hit 'Tennessee Orange.'
Moroney will be back in Boston this summer, when she hits Roadrunner for a pair of shows in early August.

Bear Hollow Zoo in Athens says goodbye to long-time black bear resident
A long-time ursine resident of the Bear Hollow Zoo in Athens has died. DJ, an American Black Bear, was put to sleep Friday morning by veterinary staff at the age of 22. Zoo staff said previously diagnosed medical conditions, including spinal osteoarthritis, progressed to a point where euthanasia was the 'most compassionate course of action.' [DOWNLOAD: Free WSB-TV News app for alerts as news breaks] DJ first came to the Bear Hollow Zoo in 2005. In 2022, he was diagnosed with spinal osteoarthritis after staff noticed weakness in his hind limbs. TRENDING STORIES: Man found dead, burned on Stone Mountain determined to die from suicide Fulton County identifies officer in shooting on McDaniel Street, says shooting was self-defense WANTED: Woman on the run, accused of murder in northeast Georgia After getting a CT scan at the University of Georgia's Veterinarian Teaching hospital, they learned he had a severe intervertebral disc disease in his lower spine. Ever since, zoo staff said they'd bee managing the disease and providing prolonged care, including treatment with medications amantadine and gabapentin. In fall 2024, DJ was diagnosed with an additional medical condition, a left-sided heart disease which was being managed with pimobendane. Staff said neither of these conditions are operable or curable in bears. Recently, DJ developed "stiffness, an abnormal gait, and a decline in physical activity." Zoo staff said that the decline led to a decrease in muscle mass, leading to the determination that DJ should be euthanized for his well-being. In the days before his euthanasia, staff gave DJ 'lots of attention and extras of his favorite treat, coconut.' When he died, 'he was surrounded by those who knew and loved him best.' 'The hardest thing for an animal care professional is to say goodbye to an animal they have cared for,' zoo coordinator Kelly Garrison said in a statement. 'DJ was loved by all at Bear Hollow. He was a true gentle giant weighing around 500 pounds.' DJ's companion bears, Yonah and Athena, remain at Bear Hollow Zoo, arriving in 2010, according to officials.
