SCOTTY MCCREERY APRIL FAN OF THE MONTH
Congratulations to the Scotty McCreery Fan of the Month for April 2023, Amanda C! Learn more about Amanda below!
Where are you from?: Ironton, OH
How many years have you been a fan?: I don’t even know. Since the first time I saw him in concert. No idea what year it was.
How many years have you been a fan club member? 2-3 Years
What is your favorite Scotty song? Blue Jean Baby
What is your favorite Scotty album? Clear As Day
How many times have you seen Scotty live? What was your first show? What was your favorite show? Somewhere between 4-6. My first, second, and most recent were all in Ashland KY. I’ve seen every show of his there. I’ve also seen him in Columbus.
What’s one thing that sets you apart from other Scotty fans? I was not a Scotty Fan during his American Idol season. I don’t remember who my favorite was, but it wasn’t Scotty. My, at the time, 75 year old Mamaw heard his voice in the audition and instantly knew he would win. She loved Scotty. I didn’t become a fan until my oldest daughter drug me to his first concert at the Paramount in Ashland, KY. I’ve been hooked ever since.

There are a variety of opportunities for fans to engage with the artists, including a dedicated website with artist videos at locallygrown.uscellular.com and an original Spotify playlist, curated to showcase these talented artists.

Current Single “It Matters to Her,” the Fastest Rising Song of His Career, is at No. 20
McCreery Guest Hosts “American Country Countdown with Kix Brooks” This Weekend in Preparation of Joining the Brooks & Dunn REBOOT Tour 2023 in May
Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum includes McCreery in upcoming “American Currents” Exhibit Opening March 8
Triple Tigers recording artist Scotty McCreery recently launched his Damn Strait Tour and already has five sold out shows under his belt with full capacity audiences in Joliet, IL; Charlotte, NC; Greenville, SC; The Villages, FL; and Sarasota, FL. With an average attendance of more than 2,000 fans at those concerts, the in-demand entertainer has also sold out four additional shows in advance on March 18 in Shipshewana, IN; Mar. 19 in Nashville, IN; April 28 in Lancaster, PA; and April 30 in Hagerstown, MD. Minimal tickets remain at many of the other upcoming concerts on the tour.
“McCreery captivates with hit songs and personal stories on Damn Strait Tour,” headlined Country Now in its review of his sold-out Joliet, IL show at the Rialto Square Theatre on Jan. 27. When describing the opening of the show, they wrote “an overwhelming feeling of anticipation soared throughout the entire room as he sang the opening verse to his 2018 fan-favorite, ‘In Between.’ The energy suddenly shifted as the stage lit up and his five-piece band members joined in... A roar of applause bounced off the walls….”
“We’ve just started the Damn Strait Tour, but we’re already having a great time on the road,” said McCreery. “The audiences have been packed, singing along with every song. It’s been a blast.”
The tour is named after McCreery’s fifth consecutive No. 1 hit “Damn Strait,” written by Trent Tomlinson and Jim Collins, which spent three weeks at the top of both the Mediabase and Billboard charts. One of the highlights of McCreery’s concerts is his performance of his current single “It Matters to Her,” which he co-wrote with Rhett Akins and Lee Thomas Miller. “It Matters to Her” is the singer/songwriter’s fastest rising single of his career, currently at No. 20 on the Mediabase chart.
McCreery brought his three-month-old son Avery out on stage in Knoxville, TN on Feb. 2, introducing him to the crowd. Safe in his father’s arms and wearing his noise reduction headphones, young Avery seemed completely at ease as the audience cheered and snapped photos with their phones.
McCreery will guest-host the nationally syndicated radio program “American Country Countdown with Kix Brooks” this weekend, airing in markets across the nation on Feb. 18-19. As previously announced, McCreery will join Brooks & Ronnie Dunn for their Brooks & Dunn REBOOT Tour 2023 in May and June, with Megan Moroney as opening act.
McCreery will be one of the artists featured in the new “American Currents: State of the Music” exhibit at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, opening on March 8, 2023, and remaining on display through Feb. 4, 2024.
McCreery will perform on the Grand Ole Opry tonight (Feb. 14) and again on Thursday, March 9 for their “Opry Country Classics Show.” Tickets for both shows are available at Opry.com.
