Gabi and Avery accompanied the American Idol champ to the Big Apple where he performed his latest single, "It Matters To Her," on Good Morning America.Throughout Scotty McCreery's performance, Gabi and Avery sweetly cheered him on from the side of the stage.While in town, the family enjoyed the sights and sounds of the big city and later shared photos of videos of their "whirlwind" trip on Instagram.
"Avery couldn't contain his excitement 🤪😅," Gabi captioned a post that included photos and videos from Times Square and the GMA set. McCreery recently co-hosted Country Countdown USA alongside Lon Helton, where he opened up about his 8-month-old son.
"He looks like a completely different human. He smiles and you realize that it's not just 'poop smiles' anymore," McCreery said. "He's already a little jokester, laughing at us, gives us these little winks, and he's sleeping through the night. We have a baby bus, so he has a crib on the bus, and they're with me every day. It's awesome."During his discussion with Helton, he also shared that his forthcoming new album will feature songs inspired by Avery. "There will be a baby song on my next album, many more, every song has been inspired by him, every song has been influenced by the last six months of raising him, it's a good place to be.
I feel I have a lot of ideas, and a fresh place to be."McCreery's forthcoming new album will serve as the follow-up to his latest release, Same Truck: The Deluxe Album.
