Bourbon, HBO, And American Idol – Can’t Beat Cody

For more from the Kicks Wake Up Krew, click here.

I've had the opportunity to hang out with Kicks99 Guitar Pull star Scotty McCreery quite a bit over the years. He's always been a great guy. Scotty has always been there to help no matter what the cause might've been. He's helped out The Augusta Chapter of The American Red Cross, The Jud C. Hickey Center for Alzheimer's Care (now Via Cognitive Health) and so many more.

I joke all the time that Scotty is the only man that my grandma loves just as much as me. She had two phones going at the same time calling to vote for Scotty to win American Idol. I'm convinced that my Nanny helped Scotty win back in 2011. 2011 was also the first time Scotty McCreery would perform in Kicks County. He played Guitar Pull that year and was the most popular artist by far. I think that's when Augusta fell in love with Scotty McCreery.

Over the years, Scotty has been here multiple times, mostly to help with benefit shows. He's played Music For Memories and The Red Cross Boot Scoot Boogie Bash. Scotty also performed at Rock For The Cops back in 2016. He was also the final artist to ever play A Day in the Country back in 2015. See what I mean when I say that Scotty has a pretty good relationship with Augusta?

This year will be Scotty's third time playing at the Kicks99 Guitar Pull and we can't wait to have him back. If you want to check out the latest updates from Scotty, just click here.

These are some of my favorite memories with Scotty.
