Over The Rhine

Over the Rhine may not be a household name, but to call the act’s followers “fanatical” understates the point.  The reason for such devotion?  It begins with the incredible songwriting talents of the band’s husband-and-wife duo, Linford Detweiler and Karin Bergquist. 

And then there’s the voice.  Bergquist’s enchanting and mellifluous delivery is the perfect showcase for the pair’s exceptional and exceptionally unique compositions.  “Karin and I write songs that allow her voice to bloom,” explains Detweiler.

“Over the Rhine is impossible to categorize; their music contains elements of jazz, rock and blues, but they create a sound unmistakably their own,” says the Chicago Tribune.  “Lead singer Karin Bergquist’s compelling voice is a perfect match for the mystical songs she and . . . Linford Detweiler write.”  

Thanks to their annual appearances at the Lyric, Over the Rhine has built a solid following on the Treasure Coast – and their fan base continues to grow.  If you’ve heard them, you’ve no doubt already reserved your seat for this season’s performance.  And if you haven’t yet heard Over the Rhine, what are you waiting for?
