GRAHAM BARHAM BRINGS “CLUB COUNTRY” SOUND TO RIVERS CASINO PORTSMOUTH

PORTSMOUTH—March 2, 2026—Rising country standout Graham Barham will bring his high-energy “Club Country” sound to Rivers Casino Portsmouth on Friday, May 1, at 8 p.m. 

Drawing inspiration from country stalwarts like George Strait and pop icons such as Justin Bieber, Barham has crafted a distinct style he calls “Club Country” — a bold blend of slamming 808s and slick steel guitar. Named an “Artist to Watch” by Spotify and Amazon Music, Barham delivers fiery country bangers that have positioned him as one of country music’s most exciting new voices. His signature wordplay and swaggering musicality have led him to pen songs for fellow rising country stars such as Wyatt Flores, Chase Matthew, and Tyler Braden.

Originally from Louisiana, Barham moved to Nashville to pursue songwriting, first gaining national attention in 2022 with his viral single “Preachers Need People.” Now signed to Sony Music Nashville and Disruptor Records, his latest viral hit, “Oil Money,” represented the largest debut of his career and quickly became a streaming sensation — earning half a million Spotify streams in its first 24 hours and debuting at No. 1 on the Country iTunes chart. The track later marked Barham’s first entry on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, solidifying his breakout status.  Additional releases include fan favorites like “Whiskey Whiskey,” “Lie to Me” and “Shoot the Lock.” 

Closing in on a half-billion career streams, Barham is blazing his own path within the country landscape. Guests can expect a high-energy night of Nashville heat and bass-thumping beats as Barham delivers his signature blend of traditional country and modern pop.

Tickets for Graham Barham start at $35 and are on sale now at RiversCasino.com/Portsmouth.
