There are a surprising number of country artists who have been through near-death experiences. The seven country singers profiled in this video have somehow managed to escape huge tragedies: gunshot wounds, stabbings, horrifying car wrecks and more.
Everyone has those songs that they jam out to with their windows down and their sunglasses on. They might be about boating or beaches, or they could be about heartbreak, summer romance or revenge -- but no matter what, every good summer song needs to be something that you can groove to, a tune that makes you break out in song (and maybe even dance) from the very first note.
Parmalee are climbing the charts with their latest single, "Already Calling You Mine," from their 2013 Feels Like Carolina album. The tune follows the band's first No. 1 hit, "Carolina," and their single "Close Your Eyes," which landed in the Top 5 -- successes that are that much sweeter because the four-man band poured their hearts and souls into the record.
2015 Country Jam is officially rolling — after a strong Day 1, it's safe to say this country party is rockin'. With acts like Sasha McVeigh, Parmalee, the Band Perry and more on Thursday (June 18), there were many memorable, hilarious, talent-filled and musically astounding moments. But there were a handful that will be etched in the minds of fans for years to come.
At 7:15PM at the 2015 Country Jam Festival in Grand Junction, Colo., Parmalee brought down the outdoor house with a mix of hits, covers and a ton of energy.
