One on One with Scott Macintyre – American Idol Contestant

I was able to sit down with American Idol contestant, Scott MacIntyre for a one on one interview. MacIntyre was able to bring such a large amount of inspiration to the show along with great singing and piano playing. Check out the interview below.

First off, how has the tour been treating you?

Absolutely amazing from day one. It’s been such a pleasure getting on stage to sing.

Is it tough being away from your family and friends while on tour?

It really hasn’t been tough at all. At least up until this week when I realized just how long I’ve been away [laughs.] It’s sort of all catching up to me and I’m excited to get home.

What do you currently have going on? What’s in the works for you?

Well I’m working on my next album. A lot of people don’t know that I’ve already released 6 albums but I’m working on my new one now. I’m also writing a book. After the show a well renowned publisher contacted me asked me if I wanted to elaborate on my life story. I mean I went into it somewhat on the show but I feel writing the full story down in a book would be really inspirational for people, so I’ve decided to do that. You can view all about this stuff on my website scottmacintyre.com.

Wow that’s really interesting, what’s the name of your new album?

“View from Above.” That’s actually a track on the CD as well.

What’s the song/album about?

Well it’s something I wrote to relate to going through all my problems. It’s sort of like climbing a mountain, you know when you’re climbing up the hill there’s nothing to think about except to keep climbing. Then when you get to the top you can really view things and the situation from above. It’s an inspirational song more than anything else and that’s sort of the feel of my album.

Wow that’s great. I’m inspired just listening to you now. Ha-ha. It’s been a pleasure talking with you Scott. Before this thing ends is there something you want to say to your fans or anything you would like to touch on?

It’s been great talking with you too. I just want everybody to know that I will never take for granted this opportunity all my fans have given me. There is so much more to come and this is only the beginning.
