Scotty McCreery will release Christmas With Scotty McCreery (Mercury/19 Recordings/Interscope) on Oct. 16. The 11-track collection will feature the American Idol champ interpreting holiday standards as well as originals.
The Mark Bright-produced album is currently available for pre-sale on McCreery’s official site. Fans who purchase via pre-sale receive an autographed copy, a video message and a chance to win a meet and greet with McCreery.
Among the tracks are standards such as “Winter Wonderland,” “Jingle Bells,” “Let It Snow,” “The Christmas Song,” “O Holy Night,” “Holly Jolly Christmas,” “Santa Claus Is Back in Town,” “Mary, Did You Know?” and “The First Noel.” The two originals are titled, “Christmas in Heaven,” and “Christmas Is Coming Around.”
The album follows his debut project, Clear As Day, which exceeded sales of 1 million units in three months. McCreery has since been touring as part of Brad Paisley’s Virtual Reality Tour 2012.
