Bio/Event info
Scotty McCreery has been a household name for nearly half his life, ever since making
history in 2011 as both the first country artist and the youngest male artist of any genre
to debut his first studio album, the Platinum-certified Clear as Day, at No. 1 on the
all-genre Billboard Top 200 Albums chart. With his latest album Rise & Fall, featuring his
sixth No. 1 single “Cab in a Solo,” current single “Fall of Summer,” and 11 additional
tracks, McCreery explores classic themes of heartbreak, rowdy nights, nostalgia, faith,
newfound joy, fatherhood, and enduring love, and through it all, felt comfortable being
himself, resulting in a project full of electrified twang, rich baritone vocals and insightful
storytelling. The 31-year-old has sold more than 4 million albums and achieved 6 No.1
hits: the recent “Cab in a Solo,” the RIAA Platinum-certified “Damn Strait,” the RIAA
Gold certified “You Time,” the RIAA Gold certified “In Between,” the RIAA Platinum
certified “This is It,” and the RIAA Triple Platinum certified “Five More Minutes.”
The North Carolina native has earned one Triple Platinum, five Platinum and four Gold
singles; one Platinum and two Gold albums; won the 10th season of “American Idol” in
2011 at age 17; was named the ACM New Artist of the Year in 2011; won two CMT
Music Awards, the first for Breakthrough Video of the Year (“The Trouble with Girls”) in
2012, and the second for Digital-First Performance of the Year (‘It Matters to Her’ from
“CMT Stages”) in 2024; and BMI Awards for writing One of the Top 50 Country Songs of
the Year five times (in 2015 for ‘See You Tonight’, in 2018 for “Five More Minutes,” in
2019 for “This is It,” in 2021 for “In Between,” and in 2022 for “You Time”). He was
awarded Pandora Billionaire status in 2021 in recognition of his music achieving more
than one billion streams on Pandora. His song “Five More Minutes” inspired two popular
holiday movies which aired on the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Network: Five More
Minutes in 2021 and Five More Minutes: Moments Like These in 2022. He released his
first book Go Big or Go Home: The Journey Toward the Dream in 2016. Last year
McCreery was inducted into the North Carolina Music Hall of Fame. Earlier this year, he
was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry by Josh Turner and Randy Travis, after being
invited late last year by Garth Brooks. The singer/songwriter married his high school
sweetheart Gabi in 2018, and the couple had their first son Avery in October 2022
