Co-written and co-produced by Barber himself, the sophomore album ***Broken View*** serves as a sweeping and introspective reflection on life’s complexities, exploring themes of love, loss and self-discovery. It follows the 2024 debut, ***Restless Mind***, which received widespread critical acclaim, earned RIAA Gold certification, and features standout singles – 2x Platinum-certified “[Straight and Narrow](https://prezlymail.com/c/86f0da30-36ee-4a39-bb72-3cb6113a3483/3c73bfb7/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DQuZhFRXct0E)” and Platinum-certified “[Indigo (Feat.

A truly enthralling live performer known for his raw and connective stage presence, Barber has spent much of the past few years on the road playing sold-out headline dates and festival appearances across North America, the United Kingdom, Europe, and Australia. He has shared stages with icons such as **Bruce Springsteen** and **Ed Sheeran**, performed on **NBC’s *****[The Kelly Clarkson Show](https://prezlymail.com/c/86f0da30-36ee-4a39-bb72-3cb6113a3483/3c73bfb7/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DH_hpOSvMa1c)*** and ***CBS Saturday Morning*****’s “****[Saturday Sessions](https://prezlymail.com/c/86f0da30-36ee-4a39-bb72-3cb6113a3483/4596a20e/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FCBSMornings%2Fvideos%2Fsam-barber-performs-on-saturday-sessions%2F625138780489195%2F)**,” and had his song “[Tear Us Apart](https://prezlymail.com/c/86f0da30-36ee-4a39-bb72-3cb6113a3483/6a177ebb/https%3A%2F%2Ftwisters.lnk.to%2FSamBarber)” featured on the soundtrack for the ***Twisters ***movie.  Through it all, Barber has showcased a remarkable gift for raw honesty and youthful enthusiasm that has forced him into nearly every conversation about the future of country music. With his gift for raw honesty, deeply personal storytelling and youthful energy, Sam has quickly become a defining voice in the next generation of country music. His latest tour promises an intimate look at the artist behind the songs - and a glimpse at where his remarkable journey goes next. Following a breakout year which saw him sell out shows around the world and expand his international following, **Josiah and the Bonnevilles** returns to Australia with ***As Is***, the boldest and most ambitious album to date. It’s a collection that captures both sides of Josiah Leming’s performance style; the intimate, vulnerable songwriter and the commanding frontman capable of turning a room into a communal singalong. ![Man with dark hair and facial hair in a collared shirt, photographed in black and white against a blurred outdoor background.](https://media.onyourmarkus.au/admin/2026/10/2ebf6cc8-bc5b-4bb8-a0db-cf3804018ec0.jpg) After years of building his following from the ground up, ***As Is*** arrives as both a deeply personal record and an invitation to experience these songs where they belong – together, in a room, with an audience singing them back. Following last year’s headline tour of Australia and New Zealand, **Josiah and the Bonnevilles **will join **Sam Barber **on his anticipated headline dates in **March** and **April** next year.  **SAM BARBER** **​AUSTRALIAN TOUR** **​MARCH & APRIL 2027** **​WITH SPECIAL GUEST JOSIAH AND THE BONNEVILLES** **​**Presented by Frontier Touring **SAM BARBER FAN PRESALE** **​**Via **[sambarbermusic.com](http://sambarbermusic.com)** ​Runs 14 hours from: **Tuesday 13 October (10am local time) ** **​***or until presale allocation exhausted* **FRONTIER MEMBER PRESALE ** **​**Via **[frontiertouring.com/sambarber](http://frontiertouring.com/sambarber)** **​**Runs 12 hours from: **Tuesday 13 October (12pm local time) ** **​***or until presale allocation exhausted* **TICKETS ON SALE** **​**Begins: **Wednesday 14 October (2pm local time)** **WEDNESDAY 31 MARCH** **​Ice Cream Factory | Perth WA (18+)** **​**[eventbrite.com.au](http://eventbrite.com.au) **SATURDAY 3 APRIL** **​Margaret Court Arena | Melbourne VIC (Lic.
