Scotty McCreery Releases New Single "Red Letter Blueprint" Featuring Jason Crabb
Scotty McCreery has unveiled a compelling new collaboration, "Red Letter Blueprint (feat. Jason Crabb)", reimagining his original track from the album "Rise & Fall". Released on February 7, 2025, this fresh rendition masterfully weaves together country and gospel elements, creating a powerful testament to faith's guiding light through life's journey.
The collaboration with Jason Crabb, a Grammy and Dove Award-winning Christian artist, adds a new dimension to the song. McCreery praised Crabb's powerful voice, stating, "When he sings, you can feel the emotion in every note and the belief in every word". The duo is set to perform the song live for the first time on the Grand Ole Opry on February 11, 2025, marking McCreery's first performance during the Opry100 year-long celebration.
McCreery, born on October 9, 1993, in Garner, North Carolina, has been a prominent figure in the country music scene for over a decade. His deep baritone voice and storytelling abilities have been hallmarks of his career since his American Idol days. The singer has consistently incorporated his faith into his music, and "Red Letter Blueprint" is a prime example of this artistic choice.
"Red Letter Blueprint" is a comforting ballad of faith and inner strength, co-written by McCreery, Derek George, Brent Anderson, Jeremy Bussey, and Monty Criswell. The song's lyrics encourage listeners to find solace in faith during challenging times, with lines like "Where can you go when you ain't gettin' nowhere? / Every turn is a dead-end road / The rain starts to fall and you're so lost out there / Really only one place I know".
McCreery's latest album, "Rise & Fall," released in 2024, has been critically acclaimed, with Rolling Stone naming it one of the 30 Best Country Albums of 2024. The album explores themes of heartbreak, rowdy nights, nostalgia, faith, newfound joy, fatherhood, and enduring love. It includes McCreery's sixth No. 1 single, "Cab in a Solo," and the current single "Fall of Summer".
Throughout his career, McCreery has achieved significant success, selling more than 4 million albums and earning six No. 1 hits. His debut album, "Clear as Day," released in 2011, made history by debuting at No. 1 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart, making McCreery the first country artist and the youngest male artist to achieve this feat.
In addition to his musical achievements, McCreery has expanded his creative pursuits. He released his first book, "Go Big or Go Home: The Journey Toward the Dream," in 2016. In 2024, he received one of country music's highest honors when he was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry.
As McCreery continues to evolve as an artist, "Red Letter Blueprint (feat. Jason Crabb)" showcases McCreery's rich baritone vocals and his ability to collaborate with artists across genres. The song demonstrates his continued growth as a songwriter and his dedication to creating music that resonates deeply with his audience.
