Over the Rhine Barn Loft Concert: Annual Hummingbird Concert

October 19, 2024
Gates open at 3pm. Music starts at 5pm.
Bonfire to follow, weather permitting.

On Saturday, October 19, one of the best months of the year in Ohio, we are hosting another barn loft concert at Nowhere Else.

This is our annual thank you concert for those who pitched in to help us acquire the hummingbird guest house adjacent to the barn. 

We usually have some extra room in the loft, and we open up those seats to a limited number of others who are able to join, on a first come first served basis.

Pack a picnic, bring a blanket or lawn chairs and comfortable walking shoes. We’ll have tables and chairs set up in the barn as well. We’ll pick up some local orchard cider and apples, and have additional festive beverages available on site.

Fall is one of our all-time favorite colors on the farm. Join us for another magical gathering at Nowhere Else!

Over the Rhine Barn Loft Concert: Entertaining Angels

November 16, 2024
Gates open at 4pm. Moonrise at 5:45pm. Music starts at 6:30pm.
Bonfire to follow, weather permitting.

On Saturday, November 16, we are hosting our final barn loft concert of 2024 at Nowhere Else.

In what has become an annual tradition, Karin and Linford will go back through their extensive catalog and put together an evening of Over the Rhine songs in which angels appear. “I’ll just ride on the backs of the angels tonight,” “All these broken angels,” “We’ll sing till angels come carry you and all your cares.”

In the ancient stories we grew up with as children, an angel appearing would often arrive bearing a message that opened with the words, Don’t be afraid. What surprising insights might they be bearing when they arrive in a song?

Pack a picnic, bring a blanket or lawn chairs and comfortable walking shoes. We’ll have tables and chairs set up in the barn as well.

Festive beverages will be available on site.

Again, this will be the last barn loft concert of 2024. We hope to see you on the farm to tie a bow on another magical season of music at Nowhere Else!

Two new albums! All orders receive instant download access.

Hymn Time In The Land Of Abandon

After three-plus decades of recording as Over the Rhine, Linford and Karin revisit and reimagine a collection of old hymns and gospel songs: “Music that we grew up singing, music as present in our formative years as the air we breathed.”

An early review of an advance copy of Hymn Time, the very first Over the Rhine record made in the barn loft at Nowhere Else, offered this succinct summary:

“Truly lovely—spare, sweet and subtle renderings that transform the familiar into something fresh and new.”

May it be so.

Ten Songs Without Words
Linford Detweiler
Solo Piano

Also among the very first recordings from the barn loft: Linford, alone at a piano, playing Ten Songs Without Words.

“From the very first time I sat down at a piano, I discovered that melodies were available. A river of music was already flowing up above me. When I closed my eyes and pressed a few black and white keys, something beyond words would begin to make itself known. It made it difficult not to believe that music was a miracle of some kind or other.”
