In its second year in Texas, Parker McCollum and Friends: ACM Lifting Lives LIVE, Presented by Choctaw Casinos & Resorts will raise money and awareness for ACM Lifting Lives, which works to improve lives through the power of music with a specific focus on health-related initiatives that use music therapy as a way of healing. Significant annual commitments include the ACM Lifting Lives Autism Lab at Vanderbilt Kennedy Center and their annual Music Camp, a week-long, music-driven, residential program for individuals with Williams syndrome. Their work also includes contributions to various organizations that provide mental health support for the country music community, along with grants through The Diane Holcomb Emergency Relief Fund, given to individuals who face unexpected emergencies or hardships.

“I am truly honored that ACM Lifting Lives has given me the opportunity to host the Parker McCollum & Friends: ACM Lifting Lives event this year at Topgolf in The Colony, TX,” McCollum says. “The work they do to improve lives through the power of music and the funds they raise are vital to helping folks in and out of our Country music community. I can’t wait to have some of my really talented friends join me for a great night supporting the mission of ACM Lifting Lives and help them continue their incredible work.”

“The support of Country Music artists and the industry as a whole are what makes the impactful work of ACM Lifting Lives possible,” explained ACM Lifting Lives Executive Director Lyndsay Cruz. “We have been massive fans of Parker for years, and we couldn’t be more excited that he chose to volunteer his time to help us raise money and awareness in his home state. We can’t wait to party with the fans in north Texas so soon!”

Parker McCollum, a self-proclaimed sports fanatic, is going to be running a March Madness bracket of his own. He’ll give away a bunch of cool prizes, including a flyaway to his show at Red Rocks in Colorado later this year. You have to fill out the bracket by Thursday (March 21st). Check out his video, which includes instructions in filling out the bracket by clicking the link in his bio.

Parker McCollum may have had a little premotion about possibly becoming a father sooner rather than later. Last year when he released his latest album, Never Enough, he talked about how he and his wife Hallie Ray were thinking about expanding their family.

“It’s knocking on my door real loud,” says Parker. “And sometimes I think about it, and at some points during the day it will cross my mind that that’s close and it’s going to be – I like look in the back seat and I’m like there’s going to be a damn car seat back there before – if you’re not careful.  And I’ll think about it, and I’ll be like man, that’s – hell yeah. I have a great dad. Great grandparents.  Great uncles. Like I look forward to – I have nieces and nephews now – I look forward to that of my own for sure.  We wouldn’t be surprised if that happened soon.”

The couple announced that they were expecting their first child — a boy — early last month.

I’m gone be a daddy! Baby M coming later this year! Such a huge blessing from God!

Parker is currently climbing into the Top 5 on the country charts with his latest single, “Burn It Down.”

Parker McCollum is in the midst of his Burn It Down Tour, and he’s having the time of his life. What performing live gives him is the gratification of seeing crowds sing his own songs back to him.

“It is the gratification of knowing that you’re a good songwriter and your songs are connecting,” says Parker. “When you’re out there in person seeing ‘em sing every word to those songs back to you, that’s the biggest part of being a songwriter.”

Parker continues his treak across the country on Friday (March 1st) in Columbia, South Carolina.
