Partners in Rhyme is a vocal group with a unique chemistry that comes from the members knowing each other and singing together since childhood. This is a group with deep roots - and it shows in their fun and casual appearances. The group was officially formed in the early 1990's when Lead Vocalist Derek Rimko, his cousin Tenor Ryan Braford, and Bass Ryan Fischer started entering and winning local singing contests. Soon the group developed a more contemporary sound, which included a more diverse repertoire of rap, country, rock and other genres. They also incorporated vocal percussion and vocal instrumentation elements into their music. They were joined in 1995 by Baritone Brad Anderson. In 1999, the group added Geoffrey Short.
