Country singer Scotty McCreery brought some family charm to his opening set for Cody Johnson at Oklahoma City's Paycom Center, inviting his three-year-old son Avery onstage for a brief duet. The moment, captured on video and shared widely online, offered fans a heartwarming glimpse of the American Idol winner's home life amid a busy touring schedule.

McCreery knelt to Avery's level while performing his 2024 song "Cab in a Solo," then let his son sing the final line before joking "It's bedtime, y'all" and carrying him offstage. McCreery and his wife Gabi also have a younger son, Oliver, who turns one in September; the appearance follows the July release of McCreery's album 15, marking fifteen years since his American Idol win.
