Parmalee has the No. 1 most added song at country radio this week with their new single, “God Knew Better,” which secured 65 adds across Country Aircheck/Mediabase and Billboard. 

The emotionally charged mid-tempo ballad thanks God for sending the one woman who could calm a reckless heart, and was co-written by Abram Dean, David Fanning, Jamie Collazo, Andy Albert and the band. Parmalee describes the track as “like running into an old friend you didn’t know you needed to see.”

The song is off of Parmalee’s latest album, Fell In Love With A Cowgirl, and follows their fifth consecutive No. 1 “Cowgirl,” which was the band’s longest-running No. 1 single, and the longest-running No. 1 by a band in nearly 14 years on the Billboard Country Airplay chart.

Parmalee hits the road this weekend with West Coast dates in San Diego and Temecula, and will tour through the summer. The band has cemented their place as solid hit-makers with over 1.6 billion streams, six No. 1 country hits, and a growing list of Platinum singles.
