Triple Tigers recording artist Scotty McCreery has never been one to shy away from sharing his faith, even expressing the duality of his spirituality on his No. 1 hit song ‘In Between’ where he sang “I ain’t all Holy water and I ain’t all Jim Beam…I’m somewhere in between.” Released on Friday (March 29), just in time for Easter, McCreery is getting personal again with the release of his latest track, ‘Red Letter Blueprint’, from his upcoming album Rise and Fall, out May 10th 2024 and available to pre-order/pre-save now.
“My faith is everything to me,” said McCreery. “It’s held me up during my lows and it’s been with me when I celebrate my highs. This new album was influenced by the rises and falls in my life through the years, so I wanted to sing about what sustains me. I’ve featured songs about my wife and my son, but I also wanted to share a song about my faith. I hope it is comforting to anyone who may need to hear these words.”
Written by McCreery with Derek George, Brent Anderson, Jeremy Bussey and Monty Criswell, ‘Red Letter Blueprint’ is about taking solace in the belief that no matter how far away true peace seems, the path to get there is clearly marked.
McCreery will also make his first-ever appearance at Nashville’s famed Tin Pan South Songwriters Festival on Wednesday, April 3. He will join a guitar pull at The Listening Room along with Ingrid Andress and Benjy Davis as well as Chase McGill who co-wrote ‘Stuck Behind a Tractor’ with McCreery and Rhett Akins that is featured on McCreery’s upcoming Rise and Fall album.
Rise and Fall will feature 13 tracks that find him exploring themes of heartbreak, rowdy nights, nostalgia, faith, newfound joy, fatherhood, and enduring love, resulting in a project full of insightful storytelling that includes his current Top 10 and rising single ‘Cab in a Solo’. The album, coming out May 10, was produced by McCreery’s longtime production team of Frank Rogers, Derek Wells, and Aaron Eshuis.
McCreery co-wrote 12 of the 13 songs on the album, which will be released digitally as well as on CD and vinyl. In addition, Amazon will release a limited edition, forest green vinyl version of the album.
