Scotty McCreery is adding a new notch to his resume… author. The “American Idol” winner will be releasing his debut book Go Big or Go Home: The Journey Toward the Dream.

“God gave me a voice and America gave me a chance,” says McCreery. “This book is about those two things, and about the amazing journey that began the moment I decided to say two words about this show I knew and loved. ‘Why not?'”

Go Big or Go Home follows the Garner, NC native’s journey from singing Elvis songs on the school bus to American Idol to a successful country music career. The book also shares where he came from and the impact his family, friends and faith have had on him.

The book is set to release with Zondervan, a Christian media and publishing company, and will hit shelves on May 3, 2016. Also coming for McCreery is the release of his fourth studio album, due sometime in 2016. The first single from the upcoming project, “Southern Belle” is currently out at country radio.

In the meantime, McCreery is out on the road with Rascal Flatts for their Riot Tour 2015, as well as performing his own solo dates.
