Throughout 2024, Kenny Chesney and Megan Moroney struck up an endearing friendship and on-stage partnership as part of Chesney's expansive Sun Goes Down stadium tour.

With that run of shows drawing to a close with an emotional triple-header in August, fans of both artists were faced with the sombre realisation that Chesney and Moroney most likely wouldn't be joining forces again for the forseeable future.

However, it seems we might be about to see a welcome reunion a little sooner than we anticipated. Last week, Kenny Chesney unveiled his first ever Las Vegas residency at the futuristic, immersive Sphere, with the ‘American Kids’ hitmaker set to become the first ever country artist to headline the globally renowned venue this May.

With general tickets to the Kenny Chesney Live at Sphere Las Vegas residency going on-sale on Friday, January 31st, Chesney has taken to Instagram to reveal that the artist pre-sale for his loyal No Shoes Nation fanbase opens on Tuesday, January 21st.

In his new message, Kenny Chesney has explained, “No Shoes Nation, we’ve congregated year after year all across the country, but I cannot wait for us to all come together at @spherevegas this summer. My crew, band and I are working tirelessly to make this residency one of a kind. See you this summer in Vegas! KC Community presale kicks off Tuesday, be sure to sign up for your code at kennychesney.com”.

Under the post, Megan Moroney has shared a simple yet tantalising comment - the ‘looking eyes’ emoji - which has led many fans to speculate that the ’Am I Okay?’ singer-songwriter might be teaming up with Kenny Chesney as the opener for his Sphere shows.

Megan Moroney and Kenny Chesney have remained close pals following the conclusion of their Sun Goes Down tour, with Chesney even visiting Moroney during her European run.

Heartwarmingly, Chesney is always quick to champion Moroney, with the country legend paying tribute to his former tour-mate during his recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, as well as sharing the story behind her amusing Gillette Stadium tour-prank, “Well, Megan was out on the road with us all summer...She is fantastic. I mean, she's really great. Speaking of being a great songwriter, great person, and she's really hungry, you know?”

He went on, “We always end our tour [in Foxborough] - but a member of my road family, Bailey, took her to my bus and she put on my clothes in my bus and came out on-stage dressed as me. So it just goes to show you too, not only is Megan a great songwriter, she's got a really good personality - and isn't scared of anything”.

Last November, Kenny Chesney offered an emotional toast to Megan Moroney after she took home the 2024 CMA New Artist of the Year award, while more recently, Moroney took to socials to underline her excitement at the news of Chesney's Sphere dates.

It remains to be seen whether she is due to be added to the bill of these blockbuster shows, but we'd certainly love to see Kenny Chesney and Megan Moroney linking up again for ‘She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy’ or Moroney's ’Am I Okay?’, which Chesney added to the setlist as a surprise inclusion during their final 2024 shows.

It's important to highlight that Megan Moroney does have tour-stops lined up throughout May and June, so she wouldn't be able to support Kenny Chesney for all his Sphere dates - but we're holding out hope that they'll combine for a handful at the very least.
