I don't care what other people say about country music; I love it, and Parmalee is a big reason for my deep love and appreciation for this very under-appreciated and often maligned genre. One thing I love about the band Parmalee is that there's so much camaraderie and common ground between all of the bandmates and each other. This is because they all grew up together, and I really think that this sort of childhood bond ends up making their live performances even better than other country groups.
Brothers Scott and Matt Thomas always do I great job of staying in sync with each other while performing, and Barry, their cousin, and Josh, their friend, do nothing but add to this strong sense of unity and familiarity on stage. This, in my opinion, translates to deeper, more meaningful performances of songs like "Carolina" and "Already Calling You Mine."
You can just tell when watching Parmalee perform that they're up on stage doing what they love and have always wanted to do, and it really makes for an engaging concert. I've also always appreciated the familial nature of the fans as well. I've seen first-timers at Parmalee concerts immediately welcomed by repeat viewers, and I just love that their fanbase is a community that accepts and doesn't ostracize fans, like I think other bands have problems with.
