<h3>American Idol In Retrospect: Scotty McCreery&#8217;s Idol Audition.</h3>
<p>Well, a new season of <strong><em>American Idol</em></strong> is well underway, and over here at CMNB that got us to thinkin&#8217; about last year&#8217;s winner&#8230;yep, <a title="Scotty McCreery" href="https://stubhub.prf.hn/click/camref:1100ljXyr/pubref:WPSScottyMcCreery/ar:CMNBAutoLink/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stubhub.com%2Fscotty-mccreery-tickets%2F">Scotty McCreery</a>, the young man that has experienced an overwhelming amount of success in an incredibly short amount of time. It&#8217;s always kind of fun to go back and check out stars before they were stars. So, take a look at his audition video below. </p>

<p>We&#8217;re not the only ones looking back in time. In a recent interview <a title="Scotty McCreery" href="https://stubhub.prf.hn/click/camref:1100ljXyr/pubref:WPSScottyMcCreery/ar:CMNBAutoLink/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stubhub.com%2Fscotty-mccreery-tickets%2F">Scotty McCreery</a> got a little nostalgic about his run on <em>American Idol</em>, and even doled out a little advice to this seasons contestants: <em>don&#8217;t stress out</em>!</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;&#8230;I made that mistake a couple times. You&#8217;re just there to sing, have fun, and really entertain the crowd&#8230;If you let the stress of the TV part of it, the live show part of it get to you, the singing and the entertaining won&#8217;t be fully there. Stay laid back, get your songs right, work hard, and you&#8217;ll be set.&#8221;-<a title="Scotty McCreery" href="https://stubhub.prf.hn/click/camref:1100ljXyr/pubref:WPSScottyMcCreery/ar:CMNBAutoLink/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stubhub.com%2Fscotty-mccreery-tickets%2F">Scotty McCreery</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Currently on tour with <strong><a title="Brad Paisley" href="https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/1224809/264167/4272?subId1=WPScmnbBPaisley&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fbrad-paisley-tickets%2Fartist%2F714837&partnerpropertyid=5213910&MediaPartnerPropertyId=5213910">Brad Paisley</a></strong>and <strong><a title="The Band Perry" href="https://countrymusicontour.com/cmt-next-women-of-country-presents-kimberly-perry-of-the-band-perry-tour/">The Band Perry</a></strong>, no doubt Scotty is learning how to cope with a whole other kind of stress these days! I&#8217;m sure at the same though, he&#8217;s takin&#8217; it in stride and learning all he can from a country music great like Paisley. </p>
