Seeing Scotty McCreery Tonight

The Season 10 Miss American Idol winner, Scotty McCreery, makes his debut at #6 this week on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart with his album, See You Tonight. It sold 52,000 copies in its first week. This was good enough for a #1 debut on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart this week. His rookie album "Clear as Day" opened at #1 two years ago on both the Billboard Top 200 Albums and the Top Country Albums charts. .

Scotty McCreery becomes the second solo male to debut at No. 1 with his first two sets of original material in the nearly 50-year history of Billboard's Top Country Albums chart.  

"See You Tonight," McCreery's title-cut lead single from his new set, grabs Digital Gainer honors on Hot Country Songs (19,000 downloads sold, up 94%) and jumps 36-32 on the list, its best rank since it debuted at No. 28 on the April 27 chart. The track also reaches a new peak of No. 30 on the Nielsen BDS-based Country Airplay scorecard.
