Parmalee with special guest Thompson Square

ACM “New Vocal Duo/Group of the Year” nominee Parmalee is one of country music’s most successful acts – the Platinum-selling band of brothers is one of only four groups since 2001 to earn three consecutive Top 10 singles from a debut country album. The North Carolina natives had a legendary return to the top of the charts with their Platinum-certified #1 single with Blanco Brown, “Just the Way,” and their follow up single, “Take My Name” from their new album For You, which became a multi-week #1 hit.

Back on the road after a hiatus Thompson Square is excited to be back on stage.  The husband and wife due found success with their debut album featuring Grammy nominated and double Platinum selling “Are You Gonna Kiss Me Or Not” and “I Got You”. They hold multiple awards including two ACM Awards, two CMA Awards, one CMT Award and four ACA Awards and have nearly 1 billion collective steams.  They have ten chart singles including “If I Didn’t Have You”, and “Everything I Shouldn’t Be Thinking About”.
