In August, BJ Barham released what may have been 2016’s most powerful album. Rockingham is a heartbreakingly intimate record. The lyrics that have made Barham’s band American Aquarium such a grassroots success are laid bare for eight tunes. The result of a European tour, Rockingham came together quickly for Barham. But, its result is something to be savored.

When those songs are played live, like they were in Orlando earlier this year, the power of Barham’s poetry comes through in his passionate professionalism on stage. Barham gives his all every night. Each performance, whether solo or with the band, is his masterpiece. That’s why we recently proclaimed BJ Barham belongs in the same category as Jason Isbell, Sturgill Simpson, and Cory Branan — the great Americana songwriters of a generation.
BJ Barham plays the legendary Mercury Lounge on Thursday, December 1. It is an early show, so you can enjoy one of the best in the business and still make that dinner reservation. Barham does not get to the Lower East Side very often. Don’t miss this opportunity.
