Best known as the frontman of North Carolina alt-country outfit <a href="spotify:artist:7nSYcucRT6IGiMepEmiZgT">American Aquarium</a>, singer/songwriter B.J. Barham has spent much of his career delivering rugged, earthy roots rock in the vein of <a href="spotify:artist:0tyLMmQvEuyQR4qjGBdbem">Whiskeytown</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:1rXr1ZnvbRoYBaedIl9v4v">Drive-By Truckers</a>. A native of Reidsville, North Carolina, Barham formed the group in 2005 and, over the course of a decade, built <a href="spotify:artist:7nSYcucRT6IGiMepEmiZgT">American Aquarium</a>'s reputation from regional up-and-comers to acclaimed, internationally recognized act thanks to records like 2012's <a href="spotify:artist:3Q8wgwyVVv0z4UEh1HB0KY">Jason Isbell</a>-produced Burn. Flicker. Die. and 2015's Wolves. Inspired by the November 2015 terrorist attacks at a Parisian nightclub, Barham -- who was, at the time, on tour in nearby Belgium -- quickly wrote a new batch of acoustic-led songs that would eventually become Rockingham, his solo debut. In early 2016, with co-producer Bradley Cook, he and a handpicked crew of musicians recorded the new material in a couple of marathon sessions. The album was released later that year, earning positive reviews. Barham toured as a solo act as well, hitting all 48 states in the continental United States during the spring and summer of 2017. ~ Timothy Monger, Rovi
