ABOUT.
The Parnells are a Folk/Americana band based in Portland, OR, fronted by husband and wife duo, Corey and Whitney Parnell. Born in the singer-songwriter pub scene of central Oregon, they carved out a reputation for powerful live shows, honest songwriting, and vocal prowess. With rich family harmony at the center of their sound, The Parnells bend genres and carve a sonic path that is both adventurous and familiar, blending elements of folk, roots country and Americana music traditions. Their first record, the “Own Your Soul” EP was released in 2019 to much anticipation, packed out venues, and landed them multiple playlist placements including the coveted “New Music Nashville” on Spotify. Promoters soon took notice and began booking The Parnells alongside well-known artists like Jewel, Kris Kristofferson, Elle King and The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. 2023 brought the release of their critically acclaimed self-titled record. Recorded ‘live off the floor’, in Sisters, OR and produced by David Jacobs-Strain, this new record puts The Parnell’s raw talent and clever songwriting on display, establishing them as one of Oregon’s bands on the rise.
