Before surprising attendees with her fellow country stars, “The Emo Cowgirl” shared a few words reflecting on life before fame. She revealed she grew up listening to Lady A (formerly known as Lady Antebellum) and often jammed out to their music while driving.
“There’s a few pivotal songs that I just remember being burned into my brain,” Moroney told the packed arena. “And they were songs that made me fall in love with country music, and when I got my [drivers] license, this was all I was bumping in the little Mustang that I’ve sung about. I was bumping to this song. So the younger Megan cannot believe that she gets to introduce Lady A to the stage!”
Following the warm welcome, the star-studded group then launched into a memorable duet rendition of Lady A’s 2009 smash “Need You Now,” as shown in the TikTok video below.

♬ Need You Now – Lady AntebellumAs the piano played the opening notes, fans couldn’t help but scream with excitement, turning the tune into a massive arena sing-along. Moroney — wearing a sparkly top with a shimmering pink tulle ball skirt and her hair down in soft curls — contributed harmonies during the first chorus before taking on the second verse solo.
Released on Aug. 11, 2009, and written by Lady A alongside Josh Kear, “Need You Now” served as the title track and lead single from the band’s album of the same name. The track was a massive success, reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, where it stayed for five weeks, and peaking at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Additionally, “Need You Now” won several accolades, including four Grammy Awards in 2011, including for Song of the Year and Record of the Year. In 2025, the track was also named among Billboard’s “Best Country Songs of All Time.”
