Scotty McCreery says that he learned a lot from touring with country superstars Rascal Flatts and Brad Paisley. Speaking with The Boot, the young singer opened up on his experiences with the pros.
"I've learned a lot. I could say a lot about the music. I could say a lot about the shows," he began.
"I haven't missed a Rascal Flatts show all year, unless I have to get out to get to another show, but if I'm there, I'm watching. Same thing with Brad Paisley; I saw pretty much every show.
"So we're just watching from afar," he continues. "We're at the soundboard, watching the shows and watching what they're doing [on stage], but also backstage — how they run their tours, how they treat people, what catering companies are good, what catering companies are bad. I've learned a lot."
McCreery is currently working a new album set for release in 2016. So far, he's released the lead single "Southern Belle."
