McCreery drops "Cab in a Solo" video
The video made its broadcast premiere on CMT earlier this morning and played on the Paramount billboard in New York City's Times Square.
The new video, directed by McCreery's frequent collaborator, Austin-based filmmaker Jeff Ray, gives fans a glimpse behind the scenes showing McCreery in the studio with son Avery, who makes his music video debut, and co-producer Frank Rogers while recording "Cab in a Solo." It also showcases McCreery performing in front of 92,003 fans at the University of Nebraska's Memorial Stadium in Lincoln, Neb. last year following the women's volleyball team win against Omaha, which set a new women's sporting event attendance world record.
="This video showcases both the quieter parts of my life like having my son, Avery, with me in the studio with Frank, as well as the wilder parts of my life such as performing in front of the biggest live audience of my career," said McCreery. "I am looking forward to hearing what the fans think after they watch it premiere on CMT and YouTube."
Written by McCreery, Rogers and Brent Anderson and produced by Rogers, Derek Wells and Aaron Eshuis, "Cab in a Solo" is his fastest moving single ever, garnering the most first-week adds at country radio (120) of his career and currently in the Top 20 on both Mediabase (17) and Billboard (20).

CD reviews for Scotty McCreery
"Boys from Back Home" is Scotty McCreery's amalgamation of Kenny Chesney's "I Go Back" and "Boys of Fall," which even borrows words from each hit song to create something attempting to be new. It's not new. Instead, it sounds more like songwriting by committee, relying upon radio listener demographics. Many of these songs were created to sound immediately familiar to mainstream ears. They will. This doesn't mean they're good, though, let alone meaningful. ...
Scotty McCreery's third release, "See You Tonight" is designed to market the season 10 American Idol champ as a more mature artist. Armed with songwriting heavies along with a guest vocal from Allison Krauss, it might work on paper. But in the end, he proves that his wheelhouse remains fun contemporary songs driven by his boy next door charm.
Ironically, for a fall release, the album is heavy on summertime themed tracks and upbeat party anthems. From Feel Good Summer Song to ...
