Over the Rhine is the Cincinnati duo of Linford Detweiler and Karin Bergquist. Their ethereal sounds--dreamy, sweeping, highly literate and melancholy--have drawn comparisons to the likes of Cowboy Junkies. They have a core of admirers in their hometown that has stuck with them for more than 20 years now, and there will be plenty of Cincinnatians in the crowd tonight--get tickets early! Says Leslie Benson of the Dayton City Paper: "The music of Cincinnati-based folk/roots band Over the Rhine seeps into you with a rich hunger--each note a separate, glimmering cloud- diamond." Over the Rhine had the best (and almost nonpartisan) song of the last election season with "If a Song Could Be President" ("John Prine would run the FBI-- all the criminals would laugh and cry"), and they're bringing their new album, "Live from Nowhere, Volume Three." Opening the show is Cincinnati singer-songwriter Kim Taylor, who has been featured on NPR's World Café. Kim's song "Days Like This" was recently featured in the season finale of the WB television series "One Tree Hill."
