18-year old country singer and 2011 American Idol winner Scott McCreery will debut atop the US album chart later this week.
McCreery’s album ‘Clear As Day’ is tracking well in front of Adele ‘21’ (at 2) and last week’s number one from J. Cole ‘Cole World: The Sideline Story’ that may drop out of the top 5.
McCreery sang songs by Montgomery Gentry, Alan Jackson and Kenny Rogers in the last season of Idol but capped the finale off with his first single ‘I Love You This Big’.
The ‘Clear As Day’ album will feature a cover of an early Keith Urban and The Ranch song ‘Walkin’ In The Country’. Urban recorded the song in 1997.
‘Clear As Day’ was produced by Mark Bright who has also worked on albums by Carrie Underwood, Reba McEntire and Rascal Flatts.
