SONG (MP3): TROUBLE
ALBUM: The Trumpet Child
FILE UNDER: Pop / Folk / Americana
LABEL: Back Porch Records

INFO: Over the Rhine (also occasionally referred to as OtR) is an Ohio-based musical band, the current core of which is the husband-and-wife team of bassist/pianist/guitarist Linford Detweiler and vocalist/guitarist Karin Bergquist. Originally a quartet with guitarist Ric Hordinski and drummer Brian Kelley, Over the Rhine is now solely the married-duo of Linford Detweiler and Karin Bergquist with "hired guns" on albums and tours. Linford and Karin were not married at the foundation of the band. The band's namesake and place of origin is the Cincinnati, Ohio neighborhood Over-the-Rhine. Karin attended school in Barnesville, Ohio and graduated from Barnesville High School in 1984. She then went to Malone College, located in Canton, Ohio, where she met Linford. They have both toured and recorded in many shapes and forms. Over the years, the band has opened for a number of musicians, including Bob Dylan, and toured as "adjunct" members of Cowboy Junkies.

The linked song is by Voxtrot - not Over the Rhine. I'd love to hear the OTR song if you are willing to repost. Thanks
