Country Rockers To Perform Three Bicoastal Shows Within 24 Hours To Promote New Single, “Carolina,” Now Available On iTunes
Stoney Creek Records’ Parmalee is getting ready to embark on a bicoastal adventure to promote its highly anticipated next single, “Carolina,” releasing to Country radio on Monday, Feb. 4.
On Friday, Jan. 25, the band is scheduled to perform in each of the three states mentioned in the new single (Carolina, California and New York) on the very same day…a journey of 3,500 miles.
“’Carolina’ is a song about home and how your loved ones make you feel at home no matter where you are,” says Matt Thomas (Lead Vocals, Guitar).
“We wrote it after a long trip to California where we were home sick and missed our families,” adds Josh McSwain (Guitar/Vocals). “So making this coast to coast journey to premiere the song brings back a lot of great memories.”
The schedule of shows for the “Carolina Coast to Coast” event is as follows:
Time Venue City
12:05 A.M. EST Deep South The Bar Raleigh, NC
10:00 A.M. EST Sirius XM’s Fishbowl Studio New York, NY
10:30 P.M. PST The Rodeo Club San Jose, CA
SiriusXM’s The Highway has signed on to feature a live broadcast all three shows. Listeners can tune in to Channel 59 on SiriusXM.
Additionally, Parmalee fans will have the opportunity to stream one of the Carolina Coast to Coast shows online live from Deep South in Raleigh, NC at 12:05 A.M. ET/ 11:05 P.M. CT at: www.parmaleeLIVE.com

ABOUT PARMALEE:
Parmalee is a family band comprised of brothers Matt and Scott Thomas (Lead Vocals/Guitar and Drums, respectively), cousin Barry Knox (Bass) and life-long best friend Josh McSwain (Guitar).
The group’s debut single, “Musta Had A Good Time” hit Top 40 last year at Country radio and was voted as the #1 song on Sirius XM The Highway’s “The Hot 30 Live” countdown for four consecutive weeks. The single has now surpassed 130,000 downloads sold. “Musta Had A Good Time” placed #7 in the Top 10 Country Dance Hits of 2012 (Marco Club Connection). Additionally, the song has been featured in national sporting event broadcasts for the PGA and MLB.
Influenced by such musical heavyweights as the Allman Brothers, Travis Tritt and Bob Seger, the band’s name is derived from the small town of Parmele, NC (population 262), which is home to a gas station, two blinking yellow lights and a small tin-roofed barn dubbed Studio B where the band practiced on every given evening.
Cutting their teeth on the Southeastern touring circuit and known for their fun-loving live shows, the members of Parmalee endured a tumultuous journey to Nashville which included dangerous pit stops, catastrophic weather and a near-fatal robbery that would have torn most bands apart. Instead, Parmalee’s deep Country roots, intense motivation, and band-of-brothers sense of dedication brought the tight-knit crew even closer together.
