Scotty McCreery Postpones North Carolina Concert Due to Hurricane Erin

Scotty McCreery, the country singer and American Idol winner, has postponed his concert originally scheduled for August 21, 2025, at Morris Farm Back 40 Live in Barco, North Carolina, due to the impending threat of Hurricane Erin. The show has been rescheduled to May 23, 2026, with all tickets for the original date being honored, and fans unable to attend the new date eligible for refunds within 30 days of the announcement. Hurricane Erin, a Category 2 storm, is expected to bring dangerous surf conditions, heavy rain, and flooding along the North Carolina coast, prompting safety concerns. McCreery, a native of North Carolina, emphasized that the decision was made in the interest of the safety of fans, staff, and artists. Despite the postponement, McCreery continues to release new music, including his latest EP "Scooter and Friends," featuring collaborations with artists like Hootie & the Blowfish. Fans largely support McCreery's choice to prioritize safety, expressing understanding and anticipation for the rescheduled concert.
