American Aquarium in Orlando

American Aquarium The Fear of Standing Still For nearly two decades, American Aquarium have pushed toward that rare form of rock-and-roll thats revelatory in every sense. For us the sweet spot is when youve got a rock band that makes you scream along to every word, and its not until youre coming down at three a.m. that you realize those words are saying something real about your life, says frontman BJ Barham. Thats what made us fall in love with music in the first place, and thats the goal in everything we do. On their new album The Fear of Standing Still, the North Carolina-bred band embody that dynamic with more intensity than ever before, endlessly matching their gritty breed of country-rock with Barhams bravest and most incisive songwriting to date. As he reflects on matters both personal and socioculturale.g., the complexity of Southern identity, the intersection of generational trauma and the dismantling of reproductive rightsAmerican Aquarium instill every moment of The Fear of Standing Still with equal parts unbridled spirit and illuminating empathy.
