Infusing folk roots, driving rock and thoughtful poetics, Robert Rhu and The Sweet Divine will take you on a musical journey not soon forgotten. From their home-base in Boulder, Colorado, they are quickly creating ripples that are reaching far and wide. Led by the songwriting of Robert Rhu and supported by an all-star cast of musicians, The Sweet Divine has successfully created a sound that is all their own. That sound is inspiring audiences of all types.

A secret to the band’s success has been the ability to connect with their live audience in an intimate and moving way. Much of this has been possible through the booking of shows in more “unconventional” and smaller venues such as people’s homes and smaller festivals. This approach has proven remarkably viral as new listeners become devoted fans and spread the word about their experience with the band.

This is not your average band line-up. The 4 piece band includes pedal steel guitar (Glenn Taylor), cello (Sarah Goodroad), simple and small drum kit (Amy Shelley) and a vocalist playing acoustic guitar (Robert Rhu).

The rich musical landscape they create can hardly be contained by a particular genre. There’s a wide gamut of influences that are being called upon to establish a sound that is purely their own.

The new album, due out in 2008, will surely be a perfect addition to this band’s musical journey. If performances and previous recordings are any indication, this upcoming release is certain to be something to get excited for.

Listeners are finding this musical experience irresistible as Robert Rhu and The Sweet Divine weave their compelling brand of acoustic music delicately through their ears and into their heart and soul.
