Scotty McCreery Says New Album Will Have a 90’s Honkey Tonk Sound
Scotty McCreery says his new album will be “Less Autobiographical” and have a “Honky Tonk ‘90s Sound.”
Scotty McCreery’s music reflects his personal life, including his grandfather’s death in “Five More Minutes” and his love story with his wife Gabi Dugal McCreery in “This is It” and “It Matters To Her.” With his next project, the follow-up to his 2021 album Same Truck, fans can expect the 29-year-old country singer to reveal his new side.
McCreery tells Music Mayhem, “There will be a baby song on there and a song for Gabi. But, I would say, as a whole, this record is a little less autobiographical than previous records. I kind of went into it with that in mind.
“We kinda tried different directions on this record. Some heartbreak and some breakup songs. Some honky tonk songs and stuff I really haven’t done before on records.” His forthcoming album includes the waltz-driven track “Cab In A Solo,” about losing a connection with a love interest.
While McCreery is happy in love, marriage, and as a father, the new song shows he can also sing heartbreak songs.
