## Summary

Megan Moroney performed at the Grand Ole Opry’s Opry Goes Pink concert on 27 October, an event held with the Susan G. Komen Foundation to raise breast cancer awareness and funds. She also shared that Deana Carter’s “Strawberry Wine” was the first song she learned to play on guitar, connecting the evening’s performances with a formative moment in her musical life.

Moroney switched the Opry’s iconic red barn pink to mark the cause, then played songs including “Cloud 9” and “Medicine”. She later brought Mackenzie Carpenter onstage for their 2023 duet “Nothin’ Crazy”; Carpenter also performed her forthcoming single “Be Alright” and a Dolly Parton tribute. The night continued with four other performers, including breast cancer survivor Jillian Cardarelli, who made her Opry debut.
