Rising country favorites Parmalee are back with a song that hits straight to the heart. “How Do I Let You Go” is a deeply personal ballad reflecting on loss, love, and the aching wish for just a little more time. Inspired by the passing of frontman Matt and drummer Scott Thomas’ father, the track captures the bittersweet tension between grief and the enduring power of memory.
The lyrics are raw and haunting, “You’re supposed to be here now, more than a memory / Was it all in my head? Feels like a real bad dream / I thought I had more time, it hurts like hell that I don’t / How do I say goodbye? How do I let you go?” Every note carries the weight of that loss, yet there’s an underlying warmth, a tribute to the loved ones who shaped their lives and inspired their musical journey.
As the band shared on Instagram, the song is as much a note to their fathers as it is to friends gone too soon. Growing up playing in bands with their dads and performing at their first gigs at Corrigan’s, Parmalee acknowledges that those early experiences shaped who they are today. Though their dads didn’t live to see the band reach the heights of their dreams, their influence is felt in every performance and every note of this new single.
Following the success of their Top 10 hit “Cowgirl,” Parmalee proves once again that they can combine raw storytelling with deep emotional resonance. “How Do I Let You Go” is both heartbreaking and hopeful, a reminder that while letting go may be impossible, the memories and love we carry remain, lingering like a melody that never fades.
With this release, Parmalee continues to cement their reputation for honest, emotionally driven music, songs that don’t just entertain, but resonate on a deeply human level.
