Биография Parmalee
For Greenville, NC based Parmalee, endless hours behind their instruments, shameless self promotion, and an "all or nothing" attitude are just a few attributes that helped bring this family of musicians from the obscurities of a small southern town. They now share the stage with multi-platinum acts such as Velvet Revolver, Puddle of Mudd, Chevelle, and Breaking Benjamin . Parmalee’s music supplies vicious riffs with unforgettable melodies, bridging a hybrid sound from killer 70's and 80's anthemic rock to today’s no holds barred, garagy sounds with unforgettable sing along melodies. Parmalee consist of four guys who came together in late 2001 with one thing in mind....to write and play their brand of guitar driven rock music to anyone who would listen. Their sound quickly formed into it’s own, as singer Matt Thomas’ distinctive vocal sound took the forefront. Realizing that they complimented each others singing, Guitarist Josh McSwain and Bassist Barry Knox quickly found ways to compliment Matt’s vocals, inciting the creation of Parmalee’s trademark three-part harmonies and "Big" Choruses. With the vocals covered, the guys now looked to their instruments to complete the equation. Josh’s vicious riffs accompanied by Matt’s rhythmic phrasing proved to be what the band needed for their dual guitar attack, while the rhythm section was quickly cemented by drummer Scott Thomas and bassist Barry Knox’s ability to tap into each other’s playing styles.Over a year of time spent on the road and in the studio further sharpened Parmalee’s musical abilities, resulting in a dedicated following in the process. Their first release, the EP Daylight, introduced fans to Parmalee’s straight-forward sound and emotionally charged three-part vocal harmonies, provoking fans to snatch up over 3000 copies of the EP at live shows and through the band's website. The success of these shows caught the attention of noted producer David Bendeth (RCA, Elvis Presley Remasters, Vertical Horizon, Breaking Benjamin, SR-71) who invited Parmalee to record three songs at Water Music Studios in Hoboken, NJ. These three songs led to a publishing deal with Los Angeles based Windswept Publishing and another invitation from Bendeth to record the remainder of the songs that comprise their debut, full-length album Inside. Inside is a testament to how far the band's style has evolved. More complex arrangements and heartfelt lyrics are only a few of the rewards from the years of work the members of Parmalee have put into their music. From the anthemic chorus of "Broken Records", the catchy riffs in "Photograph", and the melodic verses of "Sun Die", you can easily see how Parmalee nails it when it comes to songwriting. Already having won over crowd after crowd on the road, Parmalee has proven themselves to be one of the premier rock acts in the Southeast. Knowing this, there is no doubt that if you have a chance to see Parmalee’s live show, you WILL get it!
