He said the pandemic made him slow down a bit and enjoy some time at home, but he's happy to be back doing in-person events like this.
"I did for a year and a half singing into a computer screen," McCreery said. "We did over 150 Zooms, Facebook lives, Instagram lives, but having people back seeing them smile, laughing, dancing, singing; Nothing beats it."

After his performance, McCreery planned to stick around town for Garner High's football game.
