In an interview with K Frog Live at the CMA Festival today, Scotty McCreery reveals to the DJs that he’s already recorded 5 songs for his debut album on Thursday. He probably won’t do any co-writing on the first album, but will “work his tail off” on the first, hoping it keeps him around for a second.
“Hopefully as the years progress, I’ll get better and will be working with the top songwriters in Nashville, and developing my writing as a craft too.” says Scotty.
He also talked a little about reading some of the nasty things radio bloggers had to say about him. “That’s life, ” he says. He was excited to meet Keith Urban in the bathroom at the CMT awards. They washed their hand 1st before they shook. In case you were wondering. He was also really excited to put Tim McGraw’s number in his cell phone.
Heady days for the newly minted Idol!
He and Lauren Alaina will perform at the Opry tonight, and he hopes to catch some of the acts at LP field over the weekend.
