Product Description

Description

Since the early 1990s, Ohio folk-rockers Over the Rhine have been turning out their idiosyncratic blend of singer-songwriter fare with jazzy, Rickie Lee Jones-ish touches and a dash of almost cabaret-like theatricality for a hardcore cult audience. THE TRUMPET CHILD expands their sound to include everything from horn sections to cello and exotic rhythms, while the cooing, wispy vocals of Karin Bergquist provide longtime admirers with a link to their beloved band's long history.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, 7 Feb 2008
This really does deserve 5 stars. It has hints of blues, jazz, soul, country and torch, wrapped in perfect pop melodies. The instrumentation is simple but varied, with clarinet, pedal steel and solo piano. If you like Norah Jones "Feels like Home", Rilo Kiley, Camera Obscura or Shelby Lynne give this a listen. I was hooked by one 30 second sample!

5.0 out of 5 stars Arguably their best yet, 5 Dec 2007
First encounter Over the Rhine supporting the Cowboy Junkies - and instantly loved 'em. This album though, is in a class of it's own. It's funky, it's sexy, it's bluesy, it's their best yet. And lovers of Tom Waites will indentify with the penultimate track. A welcome addition to my collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Live in San Francisco, 2 Nov 2007
By Mrs. Aileen Kearns (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I came across Over the Rhine by chance on the internet. We were visiting San Francisco on holiday and were looking for bands to check out and here they were! We purchased this album when we arrived and really enjoyed it. The band were promoting this album on their tour, and what a show it was - superb. They actually played the whole album which suited us as this was the only album we had heard, since then we have virtually bought their full collection. I am sure you will not be disappointed when you hear this cd. You will want to buy another and another!
