Scotty McCreery releases new song titled 'You Time'

Scotty McCreery has shared a news song in the form of You Time, which will be the lead single from his upcoming fourth album. You can listen to the track here.
McCreery premiered the song in spectacular fashion as he performed it at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville on September 4, as the first artist at the first gig at the venue that had fans back in, with capacity being limited to 150. It marked a full circle moment for McCreery of sorts, as he was the last artist to perform in the venue (a sold out show) prior to lockdown.
Speaking about the song, McCreery stated his delight that he was able to have new music out in the world and also opened up on the meaning behind the song, which came from him wanting to spend more time with his partner.
”I am so excited to have new music out,” said McCreery. “I wrote this with Frank [Rogers] and Aaron [Eshuis] at a time when I was on the road more than I’d ever been before and I’d get home just in time to see Gabi heading out to start her shift as a nurse. I was craving some You Time with her and that inspired this song. Of course, now during the pandemic, we’re having a lot of You Time, which I love.”
Scotty McCreery will also be venturing to the UK and Ireland next year to play his rescheduled dates, which had to be moved as a result of the pandemic. The dates are as follows:
May 4 – O2 Ritz, Manchester, England
May 5 – Old Fruitmarket, Glasgow, Scotland
May 7 – O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire, London, England
May 9 – Ireland Academy, Dublin, Republic of Ireland
May 11 – The Limelight, Belfast, Northern Ireland*
