American Aquarium Returns With 'Lamentations'

American Aquarium - Lamentations

BJ Barham is back with his band American Aquarium.  The North Carolina native released a solo record called Rockingham a few years ago, returned with his band on Things Change and is now releasing the appropriately titled Lamentations into the world of lock downs and quarantines.

The album kicks off with the song 'Me + Mine (Lamentations).' It's a song about having empathy with people who we might not see eye to eye with on politcal issues. "We have way more in common as a socety than we do differences. I'm here just to try to embrace those similarities" Barham says.

Check out the video for 'Me + Mine (Lamentations)' here.
