American Idol winner Scotty McCreery has said that he will be going back to school following the release of his debut album.
The country star announced this week that his first record will be called Clear As Day and will be released on October 4.
Speaking on Good Morning America today, he said: "We've been recording non-stop since the finale and I'm very proud of it."
When asked if a tour could follow, he replied: "After the album I'm going back to school. It's my senior year and I'm not going to miss out on those memories... I'll still be working."
McCreery announced his debut album details in an email to subscribers of his mailing list on Thursday, saying that he wanted to pick songs that related to him but that he knew his fans would enjoy.
He said: "Clear As Day is definitely country and it's definitely me. It has some old country influences and elements, but it also has a contemporary feel with fun up-tempo songs. It's a good mixture."
'I Love You This Big', the first single from Clear As Day, made country music history on its release when it became the highest-charting debut for a new artist in more than two decades. It entered the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart at number 32.
McCreery was on Good Morning America today alongside his fellow American Idol finalists for the program's latest Summer Concert Series performance.
He can also be seen on the American Idols Live! tour alongside the rest of season ten's Top 11 finalists which runs through September.
