Ohio


Linford Detweiler and Karin Bergquist belong in a rare strata of artists who mine a deep Christian faith, but use it as a lens to view the world and fashion their music rather than telegraph a stiff religious agenda. Over the Rhine ’s music is redolent of brokenness: personal, spiritual and emotional, sometimes redeemed, other times unresolved, but paradoxically uplifting. Recalling the likes of Daniel Lanois, mellower Neil Young, The Innocence Mission and 10,000 Maniacs, the duo retains an understated writing style that constantly puts the maxim “less is more” to the test—and succeeds. -- Paste Magazine
