Parmalee

With songs like 'Musta Had a Good Time,' 'Day Drinking' and 'Staring Down the Barrel of a Shot Glass,' one gets the impression that the Parmalee guys like to lead the party. Matt Thomas and Josh McSwain opened up about their wild ways during a video interview before their set at the Taste of Country Music Festival on Thursday (June 13).

Heavy rain showers didn't stop country music fans who'd come from all over to see Willie Nelson on Thursday night. Thousands packed Hunter Mountain in New York for the inaugural Taste of Country Music Festival. Ponchos, umbrellas, cold beverages and great country music kept fans in good spirits while the LoCash Cowboys, Parmalee and Nelson took the stage.

The men of Parmalee call opening for Willie Nelson a lifetime achievement, but it's just the latest high of a 10-year career speckled with struggle and tragedy.

One thing I like about this time of year in addition to baseball season kicking off, is that artists and venues are beginning to announce summer concert dates, and the most recent is Keith Urban whose 45 date "Light The Fuse" tour gets underway in July...

Country music's hottest new music and camping festival just got even better. Four new artists have been added to an already star-studded lineup at the 2013 Taste of Country Music Festival. Craig Campbell, Parmalee, Rachel Farley and LoCash Cowboys will join headliners Willie Nelson and Lady Antebellum from June 13-15 at Hunter Mountain, N.Y.
