Recent reviews of Drunkard's Prayer:

NO DEPRESSION (USA) "...slow burn ambience, enchanting melodies, languid 
tempos; themes of affirmation in the face of travail. Bergquist's voice -- subtly 
emotive, with just a hint of earthy midwestern drawl -- is the perfect 
instrument."

THE SUNDAY TIMES: 4 Stars (UK) "...intensely personal songs examine the 
tricky subject of staying together. Bergquist's voice is so strong... Stunning."

UNCUT (UK) "...feels much like a renewal of vows. The vocals of Karin 
Bergquist add a rich sophistication to piano-led chamber ballads and jazz-inflected 
folk."

PASTE MAGAZINE (USA) "...emotive, soaring, bittersweet, this is the 
soundtrack to an evening at home with your oldest friends..."

ALL MUSIC GUIDE (USA) "Over the Rhine bring things back to the heart on 
Drunkard's Prayer. ...tender, poetic, gracious, deeply moving. Songs like "Hush 
Now," "I Want You to be My Love," and "Bluer" are fine and varied illustrations 
where folk, rock and American roots music caress and kiss."

M2 (New Zealand) "With upright bass, piano, acoustic guitars, horns, a few 
subtle textures plus one amazing voice, Over the Rhine's new songs are often 
stunningly simple, but always fearless. One of the top albums of the year!"

Thanks again for your support.
