Club Country pioneer Graham Barham earns his second RIAA certification as “OIL MONEY” reaches Gold status, marking more than 500,000 U.S. units sold. With over 118 million global streams, the viral anthem continues its surge and was named one of the Best Songs of 2025 by The New York Times. The track cements Barham’s place as one of country’s most distinct new voices.
Co-written with Beau Bailey, Sam Bergeson and Cole Miracle, “OIL MONEY” pairs sharp hooks with a bold sonic edge that defines Barham’s CLUB COUNTRY movement. He recently unpacked the concept behind the song’s eye-grabbing visuals on the Culture At Large podcast, expanding on the creative world that surrounds the hit. The momentum keeps building.
Barham first struck Gold in late 2025 with “WHISKEY WHISKEY,” setting the stage for a breakout run. His new single “COUNTRY MUSIC” is out now as he headlines the WHISKEY RAIN TOUR, bringing high-impact energy to stages nationwide. The catalogue is growing and the sound is unmistakable.
Raised in Oak Ridge, Louisiana, Barham blends authentic storytelling with pop hooks and trap drive. Signed to Disruptor Records and Sony Music Nashville, and as a songwriter with Cornman and Warner Chappell, he has written for Blake Shelton, Wyatt Flores, Tyler Braden and Dierks Bentley. With an 8-song EP out now and recognition from MusicRow, SoundExchange, Amazon and Spotify, Barham stands at the front edge of country’s next wave.
