Feels Like Carolina is the major label debut album by American country music group Parmalee. It was released on December 10, 2013 via Stoney Creek Records. The album features twelve songs, including the singles "Musta Had a Good Time", "Carolina", "Close Your Eyes" and "Already Callin' You Mine".
Feels Like Carolina garnered generally positive reception by music critics. Joseph Hudak of Country Weekly gave the album a B- grade, praising the lyrics by saying that "While the album draws liberally from the country pool of shopworn images…the guys…have a knack for making them their own." He thought that the songs written by the band members were the strongest tracks, but criticized the "prevailingly generic sound". At USA Today, Brian Mansfield rated the album two-and-a-half out of four stars, feeling that "these guys are a throwback to bands that fleshed out melodies and tight harmonies and classic rock guitar riffs." Glenn Gamboa of Newsday gave the album a B+ grade, calling the album "well-crafted". At Allmusic, Steve Leggett rated the album four out of five stars, noting the release "shows a band that, at its best, combines gritty Southern garage rock with lead singer Matt Thomas' pure country vocals." Markos Papadatos of Digital Journal rated the album four-and-a-half out of five stars, affirming that the release was "solid from start to finish." At Got Country Online, Tara Toro rated the album four-and-a-half out of five stars, stating that as a listener, they "can listen to from start to finish." Matt Bjorke of Roughstock wrote an unrated review of the album, writing that the album "showcases a tight band with a strong ear for melodies and lyrics which suit the same part of the genre which is also home to Eric Church and Jason Aldean, among others."
