Triple Tigers recording artist Scotty McCreery is set to release his fifth studio album titled, Same Truck, on September 17, 2021.  Same Truck features 12 tracks with 10 of them co-written by Scotty. The album is produced by Frank Rogers, Derek Wells, and Aaron Eshuis. It is available for preorder HERE.

Same Truck features the Top 15 and rising hit “You Time.” The album release was set to be announced in August but amid fan demand with the second single “Why You Gotta Be Like That” news about the forthcoming release was made earlier than anticipated.  Three years ago, the album Seasons Change debuted at Number 1 on the Billboard Country Albums Chart and is certified gold by the RIAA.  Same Truck is a reflection of where Scotty’s life is now. McCreery stated the following about the album “My last album was about me as a young man getting ready to get married. Same Truck is me three years later, taking a moment to acknowledge where I am now as a 27-year-old, happily married man, sharing both what I’ve learned and where I want to go.” Currently, McCreery is out on his You Time Tour.  The track list for Same Truck is as follows.
