Scotty McCreery met Callista Clark and Tenille Arts in Melkweg Amsterdam
Scotty McCreery in Melkweg Amsterdam with special guests Callista Clark and Tenille Arts
Callista Clark kicks off the evening with an unparalleled 45-minute set, followed by a fantastic 45-minute session by Tenille Arts. Both ladies sing their own songs, a number of covers (Tenille performs a masterly version of ‘Wide Open Spaces’ by The Chicks) and together they also sing the beautiful duet ‘Breakup Songs’. Two power women who, accompanied only by their own moments, provide several goosebumps.

Scotty was indeed right during the interview*: Callista’s voice control is phenomenal and Tenille manipulates the audience, not only with her glittery guitar and her captivating personality, but also with her beautiful lyrics and voice.
At 9.30 pm the time has finally come: Scotty McCreery and band take the stage and play the tiles of the roof for more than an hour: their own songs (‘Same Truck’, ‘You Time’, ‘Damn Strait’…) are alternated with excellent covers of George Strait (‘Check Yes Or No’) and Eagles (‘Take It Easy’) and even with a real ‘Classics’ medley in which Conway Twitty, Randy Travis, Johnny Cash and Alan Jackson pass in review. As an encore, the audience is spoiled with Scotty’s number 1 hit ‘Five More Minutes’ and with a fantastic and loudly bellowed version of ‘Heaven’ by Bryan Adams!
A perfect end to a perfect evening! Thanks, Scotty McCreery and friends!
