This is a brief biography of American Idol season 10 contestant Scotty McCreery. Photos of Scotty taken before and during his time on the show are also included.
Scotty McCreery was born just seventeen years ago on October 9, 1993 in Garner, North Carolina. Contrary to what his fair skin and blue eyes suggest, he is of partial Hispanic descent on his father’s side. His grandmother was from Puerto Rico and his grandfather was American.
Scotty is a through and through country guy who blew the American Idol judges away with his audition in Milwaukee singing “Your Man” and “Put Some Drive in Your Country”. With only sixteen years of age at the time of the audition, his deep voice is something rather unique for his age.
Scotty McCreery used to impersonate the legendary Elvis Presley when he was a kid. He used to dress up as him for Halloween and loved saying “Thank you, thank you very much” just the way Elvis did. He also used to sit in the back of the school bus and sing Elvis songs while the kids said he was a bit weird. At the age of ten, while he was in fifth grade, he learned how to play the guitar. He has stated that his favorite artist is the country singer Garth Brooks. Other artists that have influenced him are Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, and Conway Twitty. He attended Garner Magnet High School and joined a vocal ensemble called Die Meistersingers with whom he performed around the country. At first he was a tenor but was changed to a baritone given the change in his voice. He has always enjoyed singing and remembers singing at his middle school graduation.
Scotty also enjoys sports; he loves baseball and even plays for the Garner High School baseball team, the Garner Trojans. He was the homerun-hitting pitcher. And as much as he loves baseball he also loves to eat fried chicken. Scotty’s favorite day of the week is Sunday because he enjoys attending church with his family. Scotty has also stated that his favorite holiday is Christmas time. Judy and Mike, his parents, also enjoy singing but they say Scotty is the best of all of them.
As it was said before Scotty loves country music, he loves listening to it and performing it. But for some odd reason that he can’t describe, he doesn’t like wearing cowboy hats. He states he has never been into them. However it is important to point out that he doesn’t sing exclusively country music. He has also sang songs by Frank Sinatra and John Mayer giving him a wider range of music genre.
Scotty McCreery’s Facebook page has reached a little over five thousand likes and many country music lovers are stating this is a new refreshing voice that will bring the genre back to the top. During his performances on stage, he has the loudest fans of all. Young Scotty still has a long way to go and has a lot of talent to help him rise to the top. He has performed different country songs on the show but has also sung other genres such as That’s All Right for the Rock & Roll theme showing he has what it’s needed to become the next American Idol.
Scotty McCreery used to be a cashier at Lowes Foods in Garner, North Carolina. Before making it to the big stage on America Idol Scotty McCreery used to sing at the First Baptist Church in Garner, NC.
Scotty’s audition for American Idol season 10 came after a friend jokingly suggested he tried out. Scotty not only tried out but he also won the golden ticket to Hollywood. Scotty’s detractors see in him a one trick pony with a weird mic technique who gets the teen vote because little girls think he’s cute. While many of Scotty’s fans do find him cute a lot of them praise him as a great country singer.
At this point in the competition, into the top 6, Scotty McCreery has never made a trip to the bottom three. Other top vote getters are Lauren Alaina and James Durbin who also never made it to the bottom 3.
Thanks to the anonymous commenter who pointed out the typo in the name of the store where Scotty used to work. It's Lowes not Lowed as previously written.Source URL: https://costumesgirl.blogspot.com/2011/04/scotty-mccreery-bio.html
