COUNTRY BAND PARMALEE TO PERFORM AT RIVERS CASINO PORTSMOUTH

PORTSMOUTH, Va.— Dec. 21, 2023 – Rivers Casino Portsmouth is bringing some country flavor to The Event Center with a live performance featuring Parmalee. The acclaimed country music band will take the stage on Saturday, Jan. 27, at 8 p.m. Tickets start at $19 and will go on sale Friday, Dec. 22, at 10 a.m. Tickets will be available online at RiversCasino.com.

Parmalee, nominated "New Vocal Duo/Group of the Year" in 2016 by the Academy of Country Music, has established itself as a powerhouse in the country music scene. Renowned for Platinum-selling records and a string of top hits, Parmalee is one of the rare groups to have three consecutive Top-10 singles from a debut Country album since 2001. With over one billion on-demand streams, their influence and popularity in the music industry are undeniable.

Hailed as "Country Music’s Breakout Stars" by MSN Entertainment, the band consists of brothers Matt and Scott Thomas, cousin Barry Knox, and lifelong friend Josh McSwain — who began creating music together in a small barn in Parmalee, N.C. Parmalee has graced the stages of NBC’s TODAY show, The Kelly Clarkson Show, The Late Late Show, and many more —  showcasing their distinct family harmony and irresistible melodies. 

Their collaboration with Blanco Brown on the Platinum-certified No. 1 single "Just the Way" marked a legendary return to the charts. Following this success, their single "Take My Name" from the album "For You" became a multi-week No. 1 hit on Country radio. Their latest single "Girl In Mine" continues to captivate audiences worldwide.

“We’re excited to feature Parmalee as our first country performance in The Event Center,” said Brian Bork, Vice President of Marketing, Rivers Casino Portsmouth. “We look forward to providing our guests with an unforgettable evening full of great vocals and radio favorites with one of country music’s most celebrated bands.”
