About Parker McCollum:
Singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Parker McCollum is following up his breakout major label debut, Gold Chain Cowboy, with his forthcoming studio album, Never Enough, out May 12 (MCA Nashville). McCollum earned his first-ever No. 1 hit with his double-Platinum certified debut single, “Pretty Heart,” and his follow-up Platinum certified single, “To Be Loved By You,” also hit No. 1 on the charts. “To Be Loved By You” was the only debut single to ship to radio and peak at No. 1 in 2020.

McCollum has been named an ‘Artist to Watch’ by Rolling Stone, Billboard, SiriusXM, CMT, RIAA, and more with American Songwriter noting, “The Texas native teeters on the edge of next-level superstardom.” MusicRow listed McCollum as their 2021 Breakout Artist of the Year and Apple also included him as one of their all-genre “Up Next Artists” Class of 2021. A dedicated road warrior, McCollum made his debut at the famed Grand Ole Opry in 2021 and he already sells out venues across the country (over 40 sold out shows nationwide in 2021) including record-breaking crowds in Dallas (20,000), The Woodlands (16,500), Austin (7500+), Lubbock (7700+), Jackson, MS (5000+), Kearney, NE (3000+), Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium, and three nights at Fort Worth’s iconic Billy Bob’s Texas. In March 2022, McCollum made his debut at RODEOHOUSTON to a sold-out crowd with over 73,000 tickets sold, returning to perform at the Opening Day celebration in 2023. He recently made a dream come true with his first-ever Austin City Limits performance, kicking off their 2023 season.

Yesterday, McCollum was presented with a plaque by UMG Nashville President Cindy Mabe and RIAA’s Jackie Jones to commemorate the accomplishment.

“Parker McCollum is a redefining, culture shaping artist,” shares Mabe. “At a time when star power is being undervalued and streaming metrics are crowned king, Parker proves that you can have, and be, both. Parker is a very important artist for the future of country music and we are beyond blessed that he is helping define our next era of country music at Universal Music Group Nashville.” – Cindy Mabe (President, UMG Nashville)

“The RIAA is excited to share in this incredible accomplishment with Parker, his team and everyone at UMG Nashville. RIAA certifications are earned solely based on what the fans are choosing to listen to.

“…this tightly-crafted song that finds the Texas native retaining an effortless swagger, even as he turns to the biggest bottle of liquid painkiller he can find to help squelch a heartbreak. The song, which the reigning ACM new male artist of the year penned with Monty Criswell, stands sturdy alongside McCollum’s recent Country Airplay No. 1, “To Be Loved By You,” as another milestone cementing this neo-traditionalist’s rising star status.”

Parker McCollum is sharing another look at his anticipated forthcoming studio album, Never Enough, with the new track “Speed” available everywhere today. Already a fan-favorite at his sold-out live shows across the country, McCollum co-wrote “Speed” with Ryan Beaver.

“My song ‘Speed’ is about my obsession with living fast. Life is always going a hundred miles an hour and it’s important to try and be aware of that and slow things down every now and then. As you get a little further along in life you start to enjoy the slow and easy life. It takes a little reflection and a little step back from everything to realize how important it is.” — Parker McCollum

Earlier this week, McCollum took part in the Country Music Hall of Fame’s American Currents: State of Music exhibition unveiling, which highlights the country music landscape over the past year. The exhibit explores musical developments, artist achievements, and notable events, as determined by the Museum’s curators and editorial staff. Featured artists of the exhibit include McCollum, Wynonna Judd, Elvis Presley, Luke Combs, HARDY, Miranda Lambert, Lainey Wilson, Jordan Davis and more, which is open to the public now through February 2024.

Parker McCollum released the official music video for his song, “Rest Of My Life,” earlier today (March 2nd). The clip, which features actor Cameron Cowperthwaite (American Horror Story, Dahmer-Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, Rocket Man), depicts the toll substance abuse could take on one’s life.

.

While the video doesn’t really reflect what the Texas native was going through at the time, he wrote the song — which appears on his 2021 album Gold Chain Cowboy — during the pandemic as he struggled to cope with life while the entire world was shut down.

“Shooting the ‘Rest Of My Life’ video was certainly pretty intense. Cameron Cowperthwaite, who is an actor out of Hollywood who’s been in a bunch of films and super, super talented, really, really embraced the role of what we were envisioning for this video,” he says. “I would say the message of this video in terms of the graphic extent in making this video was much more dramatic and further along than anything I was doing in real life that inspired this song, but I really wanted to kinda push the limits. And, you know, I didn’t want to get done with this video and feel like we could’ve done more. I felt like we did everything we could do. So many talented people working on it made it so easy to capture exactly what we were talking about and exactly what that song’s about. Hopefully, it helps somebody.”

Parker is currently making his way to the top of the country charts with “Handle On You.”

Parker McCollum, kicked down the doors during his performance at the Opening Day celebration of the famed RODEOHOUSTON selling over 70,000 tickets. Last year, Parker made one of his childhood dreams come true by making his first RODEOHOUSTON appearance and performing for a packed house. The electrifying show garnered him an invitation back to kick off this year’s season of what is certain to be another spectacular run for this time-honored tradition.

“I have so much to be grateful for. I couldn’t have imagined it better. I feel like I’m living in a movie. Houston is my favorite city in the world. I appreciate y’all loving us so much.”
-Parker McCollum

Recently, Parker revealed the title and cover art for his forthcoming studio album, Never Enough, out May 12^th via MCA Nashville. His current single, “Handle On You,” from the album is Top 10-and-climbing at Country radio.

This month McCollum kicked off a packed 2023 touring schedule selling out shows in Columbus, Detroit, and Cincinnati. In addition to headlining dates in major markets, the dedicated road-warrior can be seen performing at some of country music’s high-profile festivals including Stagecoach, Country Thunder and iHeartCountry Festival, plus sharing the bill with Morgan Wallen and Eric Church later this year.

A full list of McCollum’s upcoming tour dates and tickets are available here.

Parker McCollum is getting a “handle” on headlining the Houston Rodeo. Last year, he sold out his debut appearance, performing for a crowd of over 73,000 people, and this year, he’s set to open the entire 2023 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo on Tuesday night (February 28th).

The Texas native always dreamed of one day performing at the Houston Rodeo, and he feels this is the biggest goal he could accomplish…so far.

“Performing at Houston Rodeo on opening night is kind of the pinnacle for me. Really the one thing I set out to do when I first picked up a guitar, I did it, and now I’m getting to do it twice, and now I’m getting to do it on opening night,” says Parker. “So, obviously, I want to keep going and keep growing this thing and see how big of a level we can get to, but if this is as big as it ever got, you know I’d be totally okay and sleep just fine at night knowing that I accomplished my ultimate goal, which is playing the Houston Rodeo. Everything else is just a bonus.”

Parker, who’s sitting inside the Top 10 on the country charts with “Handle On You,” recently announced the release date for his upcoming album, Never Enough, available May 12th.

Parker McCollum has revealed the title and cover of his forthcoming studio album, Never Enough, out May 12th via MCA Nashville. Set to showcase depth in his songwriting and the evolvement of his artistry, the project will include McCollum’s new song, “I Ain’t Going Nowhere,” out everywhere today. Written by McCollum, Lori McKenna, Lee Miller, Jon Randall and Liz Rose, the up-tempo track is told from a restless dreamer’s perspective – caught between the enticing pull of wanderlust and that special person that makes staying in one place more than worth it.

“’I Ain’t Going Nowhere’ really is kind of a testament to where I’m at in my life right now. I’ve spent so much time on the road and touring and living on a tour bus and in a van since I was basically a kid and never thought I would settle down or slow down at all. And not to say I’m really slowing down, but, certainly have settled down and found that person that makes it worth it when you have a place to come home to that is not a tour bus or a highway. That was kind of the idea we were going with behind ‘I Ain’t Going Nowhere’.” – Parker McCollum

“I Ain’t Going Nowhere” follows the lead single from Never Enough, “Handle On You,” now Top-10-and-climbing on country radio and surpassing 90 million global streams. Also set to be featured on Never Enough is McCollum’s recent release “Stoned,” which marked the fast-rising star’s highest streaming debut to date, with MusicRow praising it’s a “crashing, bluesy ballad,” and McCollum is “as terrific as ever.”

This month, McCollum kicked off a packed 2023 touring schedule selling out shows in Columbus, Detroit and Cincinnati. In addition to headlining dates in major markets, the dedicated road-warrior can be seen performing at some of country music’s high-profile festivals including Stagecoach, Country Thunder and iHeartCountry Festival, plus sharing the bill with Morgan Wallen and Eric Church later this year.
