With the cancelation of the headliner, American folk singer Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, husband-and-wife duo Over the Rhine take first spot on the bill at the third annual Watching the Sky music festival. Named after their historic Cincinnati neighborhood, Over the Rhine (Linford Detweiler and Karin Bergquist) as heard on last year’s The Long Surrender craft a reflective, unpredictable brand of modern folk-pop. Accompanying them is a posse of domestic artists ranging from rambunctious rocker Keiichi Sokabe to songstress, cardiologist and mother Ann Sally.
