Megan Moroney has shared snippets of her on the beach with fellow songwriters Ben Williams, Micah Carpenter and of course, good friend and frequent co-writer, Mackenzie Carpenter. Or, more affectionately known as the group, Jimmy James.

"9 songs later😲🥳," Moroney added to a picture of her and her songwriting crew kneeling down on the beach - including the infamous Boots, the Emo Cow Dog.

She also shared another beach snippet with a quote saying, '"If that ain't a hook I don't wanna go fishing"...JIMMY JAMES IS SOOO BACK".

Moroney has worked with these esteemed songwriters for a while now, cutting 27 songs that at least one of them has helped her write. 12 of them have the whole gang as writers. They've written together since the very beginning - even earlier than 'Tennessee Orange'. Moroney's 'Hair Salon' on her 2021 EP, Pistol Made of Roses, was co-written by all of them.

Megan Moroney's Cloud 9 album has been a career defining project, debuting at number one on the Billboard Top Country Albums and the all-genre Billboard 200. She's sold out arenas on her The Cloud 9 Tour and performed at The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.

But with the pink era coming to an end, there has been some speculation on what colour her next chapter will be - yellow? Gold? - and now we can go ahead and speculate on new music, too.

Hot on the heels of her latest single, 'You For Me - Smoky Mountain Demo', seeing Moroney songwriting with her hit-making team makes us feel extremely hopeful that a new record is at least in conception.

It's kind of really cool that 5 years later, they're still writing together. Long Live Jimmy James.
