Graham Barham Lyrics

Graham Barham first moved from Louisiana to Nashville, Tennessee at 18 years old. Here, he attended Belmont University and began creating a name for himself among the community of artists and songwriters. With the recent release of his debut EP, North of Hell, Barham gives fans a small taste of his sound that's been developing since he first picked up the guitar at 10 years old.

"The first song I ever really wrote in its entirety that I can recall of significance was, I wrote a song for my best friend in high school. His mother passed away and I played just a verse, chorus and a little, almost like a poem I had written for her right before she passed,” he shared with Country Now. "Then I played it at her funeral, which really looking back on it now was kind of what showed me that, hey, you can write songs and move people in a way that I just wasn't familiar with before that instance. I guess that's kind of how I got into songwriting.”

For several years, Barham kept the lights on by writing music for other artists. However, once he started to garner a strong social media following, he took the opportunity to lean more heavily into his love for singing and performing.

He eventually saw viral success with his soulful track, "Preachers Need People,” and landed his first distribution deal with Virgin. Then in May of 2023, the Louisiana native signed a global publishing deal with Warner Chappell Music and Cornman Music.

All of this work and the strong connections he's made have led Graham Barham to where he is now with a debut EP already released and a slew of bucket list goals in the works.
