Fair books ‘Parmalee’ to perform
Parmalee
Parmalee is scheduled to take the stage at the Stanislaus County Fair on Friday, July 7.

The Stanislaus County Fair announced its first booking in the 2023 fair lineup, that of platinum award winning country band “Parmalee” on Friday July 7. The group will perform on the Coors Light Stage at 8:30 p.m. The concert will be hosted by KAT COUNTRY 103.3 and is free with the price of Fair admission.

“When you hear the song “Girl in Mind” you can’t help but feel the story telling with a modern twist to country!,” said Jose Pina, spokesperson for the Stanislaus County Fair. “We are looking forward to having Parmalee with us this year, a true new look to contemporary country music.”

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. Since their debut at country radio, Parmalee has earned over a billion on-demand streams. Heralded as “Country Music’s Breakout Stars” by MSN Entertainment, Parmalee has supported Brad Paisley and Jake Owen on national tours while finding time to perform on NBC’s Today show, The Kelly Clarkson Show, The Late Late Show, Fox & Friends All American Summer Concert Series, MLB Central’s Studio 21 and The Queen Latifah Show.

Comprised of brothers Matt and Scott Thomas (lead vocals/guitar and drums, respectively), cousin Barry Knox (bass), and life-long friend Josh McSwain, the North Carolina natives had a legendary return to the top of the charts with their No. 1 single with Blanco Brown, “Just the Way,” with their follow up single, “Take My Name” from their new album For You, then becoming a multi-week No. 1 hit at Country radio.

The 2023 Stanislaus County Fair will run July 7-16.

Discounted Fair admission tickets, unlimited ride wristbands, and the Fair season pass will be on sale beginning Saturday, April 22. Visit www.stancofair.com to find information on fair entertainment, local exhibits and livestock.
