Why is parish county line so popular in BR

They’re a cover band with a name that is very similar to Florida Georgia line. Do they have their own original music or only do covers?
I don’t want to sound hateful but damn people why is this the main choice for regularly live music in metro BR? By regularly I mean you can see them play at least once a week somewhere in the capital area. Why does BR love cover bands?

Back in the late 90’s the popular band around town was Alison Collins.

I think Parish County line has original songs
The genuine excitement that people in BR get over The Cheewees playing the same cover song set at every BR event throughout the year always amazes me. You’d think it was the Beatles out there the way it gets some LP girls I know rilled up.

isn’t the same guy that “managed” the Gillis Silo band their manager? They weren’t that great but somehow played everywhere also.

Fat guy? That guy thinks he’s the most important guy in the BR music scene.

They play old country and southern rock. Music everyone knows and can have a good time with. Don’t overthink it.

Not really. They were popular but never played any of the places parish County plays. Also parish County was popular at LSU when I was in college 5 years ago before their manager was on anyone’s music radar. But no doubt you won’t see PCL on any national radar ever. They’re local/regional. Fun show though. Not on my playlist though

1. BR loves cover bands for some reason
2. They built a fan base that includes hot white girls by playing frat parties
3. They blew up at the right time to take Gillis Silo Band’s fanbase when they broke up.
4. Decent originals
5. Their only real competition for getting those major country cover band givs are Todd O’Neal and Chase Tyler. So with Parish County Line being the youngest among them (and with the youngest fanbase) they get some great gigs.
Honestly, I wish my band could get half the turnout those guys get. I don’t get the appeal, but their marketing machine is clearly on point.

parish county line is honestly a joke of a band. the lead singer uses an autotune box live for his voice.
they cover garth brooks and and bunch of other super popular mainstream country radio bullshite. it appeals to the masses but they are seen as a joke around baton rouge in the music community. no one respects that band. it's dumb frat cover band shite. yes, they make money but there's no respect there at all.
and their originals are fricking terrible as well

Yes that’s the guy, don’t know his name or who he is. He must “know” a lot of people seen him on the field before a lot of games too.

Saw you post the same thing on another thread. You must really not like these guys. You also must really be a respected musician around br since you know so much. Pretty sure these guys just play for fun on weekends anyway so....wgaf?
