Parmalee Announces Release of ‘For You 2’ Album in September

Two years after the release of Parmalee‘s For You album, the four-man group announces the release of For You 2. The record, which has five new songs, already includes their two No. 1 hits from the project, both “Just the Way,” their collaboration with Blanco Brown, and “Take My Name.” Parmalee is also including their current Top 10 single, “Girl in Mine,” on the new set of tunes.

“The support from our fans for this album has been amazing,”  lead singer Matt Thomas says. “It’s been two years, almost to the date, that we released For You, and we just weren’t ready to be done with it. So, we’re excited to announce that we’re gonna add ‘Girl In Mine’ and four new tracks and For You 2 will be out September 22.”

Parmalee also teased the new songs in a video shared on social media.

“Girl in Mine” was written by Thomas, along with Ashley Gorley, Casey Brown, Travis Wood and David Fanning.

“We were in co-write session and that was one of the ideas that a co-writer had,” Thomas tells Everything Nash. “And as soon as I heard that hook line, I was like, ‘All right, I’m in. This is fun. This is right along the same lanes of everything we’re doing, speaking right to a girl.’ It just had a vibe. We needed something fun like this.”

With two back-to-back chart-topping singles, and “Girl in Mine” seemingly poised to be Parmalee’s third in a row, Thomas admits there is pressure, but not just because of their recent successes.

“It never stops,” Thomas acknowledges with a laugh. “You just gotta go with your gut and go with what feels right, and just hope. With the last two songs, we really kind of hit a nerve. I kind of hit a lane and I was like, ‘You know what? Let’s stay there for at least one more, and send one more down the pipeline.’ And I feel like this song definitely is. It’s my favorite song to play live, I’m not gonna lie. It’s great.”

Parmalee is headlining several of their own shows over the next few months, along with opening for Russell Dickerson for select shows on his Big Wheels & Back Roads Tour, which kicks off on September 21.
