Native Ohioans Detweiler and Bergquist launched Over the Rhine as a quartet in the spring of 1989, naming the ensemble after the historic, bohemian Cincinnati neighborhood Over-the-Rhine where they lived and first wrote and recorded together. Their early demos and performances quickly struck a chord with listeners, and they had am established local following by the time they launched their recording career with a pair of well-received independently released albums, Till We Have Faces (1991) and Patience (1992).

Over the next two decades, Over the Rhine has continued to build a musically and emotionally potent catalogue, encompassing the studio albums Eve (1994), Good Dog Bad Dog (1996), Films For Radio (2001), Ohio (2003), Drunkard's Prayer (2005), The Trumpet Child (2007), The Long Surrender (2011), Meet Me at the Edge of the World (2013); the holiday-themed The Darkest Night of the Year (1996), Snow Angels (2006), and Blood Oranges in the Snow (2014); the liveChanges Come (2004); and a series of limited-edition CDs featuring live, rare, and unreleased material.
