Scotty McCreery announces ‘Same Truck’ deluxe album

Same Truck: The Deluxe Album drops Nov 18th

On the heels of three straight weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart with his RIAA Gold-certified hit song “Damn Strait” and the recent launch of his new single “It Matters to Her,” which was the second most added song at country radio this week, Triple Tigers recording artist Scotty McCreery announces the release of Same Truck: The Deluxe Album coming November 18th on vinyl, CD and digital formats. “Nothin’ Right” is one of six new tracks featured on the deluxe album.

“We had more songs I loved ready for the original release of Same Truck than we could put on that album, so I am pumped that Triple Tigers asked me to do a Deluxe Edition where I could add six more songs,” shares McCreery. “We’ve also had a lot of requests for a vinyl version of Same Truck over the last year, so I’m excited we can offer that option as well.”

Same Truck: The Deluxe Album was produced by Frank Rogers, Derek Wells, and Aaron Eshuis. The project features 18 songs including the six new tracks: “Falling for a Stranger” written by Eshuis, Travis Wood, and Hannah Ellis; “Here and Ready” by Abe Stoklasa, Sarah Buxton, and Mikey Reeves; “Nothin’ Right” written by McCreery, Jordan Schmidt, Jared Mullins, and James McNair; “On It” written by McCreery, Jessi Alexander, Jonathan Singleton, and Rogers; “Live a Little” written by McCreery, Eshuis, and Blake Chaffin; and “Small Town Story” written by McCreery, Ashley Gorley, and Zach Crowell.

“On It” reunites McCreery with Alexander, Singleton, and Rogers – the writing team responsible for his Gold-certified 2020 No. 1 hit “In Between” from his No. 1 album Seasons Change. “Small Town Story” finds McCreery again joining with Gorley and Crowell, with whom he also wrote his Platinum-certified Top 10 hit “See You Tonight” from 2013.

“We’re performing ‘Nothin’ Right’ in the live shows right now and it always gets a great response,” adds McCreery. “Don’t be surprised if a few more of the bonus tracks make their way into our concerts soon.”

“Damn Strait” was McCreery’s fifth consecutive No. 1 hit, following the Gold certified singles “You Time” and “In Between,” the Platinum-certified “This Is It,” and the 2x Platinum certified “Five More Minutes.”

Both “Damn Strait” and “You Time,” as well as his new single “It Matters to Her” written by McCreery, Rhett Akins, and Lee Thomas Miller, are featured on Same Truck which was released in late 2021. The Garner, North Carolina native shifted his perspective to reflect on the last decade of his career and life with wife Gabi and dog Moose.

McCreery and his wife Gabi announced earlier this summer that they are expecting their first child, a boy, to be born in early November. McCreery spoke to us about the news on an episode of The Music Universe Podcast.

McCreery has been touring all summer, both on his own as well as direct support to Brooks & Dunn, and Brad Paisley at select shows. He is direct support to Jason Aldean tonight (Fri, Sept 16th) in Saratoga Springs, NY, and will perform a sold out show at the historic Gruene Hall in New Braunfels, TX, site of his “Damn Strait” music video, next Friday, September 23rd.
