Scotty McCreery has a lot on his plate these days. On top of prepping for his third studio album, Seasons Change, release in March, he’s also planning a wedding.
The “Five More Minutes” singer got engaged to his longtime girlfriend, Gabi Dugal, in September. He told the Boot that planning for the ceremony takes teamwork:
“It’s a team effort so far. She’s a nurse, working at Duke Hospital. When she’s working, I’ll pick up a little bit, and when I’m out on the road, she’ll help out a little bit … Engaged life is great. I’m really happy.”
Scotty is also excited to release Seasons Change. He thinks it’s his best album yet:
“I’ve been listening to it nonstop in the car. It’s sounding good. I’m a little biased, but I’m excited about it.”
It’s also turning out to be a love letter to those in his life:
“It’s by far my most personal album I’ve had out yet. I’ve got a song, ‘Five More Minutes,’ for my granddaddy. I’ve got a song I wrote the week before Gabi and I got engaged, but I knew it was coming up. I have a song about my guys back home that I grew up with. Every song is kind of a life story. I’m excited about it.”
Is it March yet?
