SCOTTY McCREERY WILL RELEASE LYRIC VIDEO FOR “SOUTHERN BELLE” ON VEVO ON AUG. 31

Multi-Platinum selling country music artist Scotty McCreery will release the lyric video for his new song “Southern Belle” on Monday, Aug. 31 on VEVO.  Beginning Monday, viewers can watch the video at this link: http://vevo.ly/8p7qgN.

“Southern Belle,” which impacts country radio that same day, was written by Sean McConnell and Jason Saenz and produced by Frank Rogers.  It is the first single from McCreery’s upcoming new album, which will be released in 2016.

“You can’t deny that this song sounds exactly like what should be in this format right now...Scotty has a humongous fan following...and this song is a HIT!” said Nate Deaton, GM at KRTY/San Jose.

“McCreery’s ‘Southern Belle’ breaks expectations. The first taste of his third studio [album] is a wild deviation from what he’s previously released. It’s anything but predictable,” wrote popular country music website Taste of Country, where the song has already won four consecutive showdowns against other new singles this week.

US 99.5/Chicago’s website summed it up with a story titled “We’re already obsessed with Scotty McCreery’s new song.”
