He chased him down the hallway after class, asked for an audition and landed the role. More than 30 years later, he's still making music and connecting with audiences throughout the region.On Thursday, June 25, Bertsch and his band, The Blamers, will bring their blend of folk-rock, Americana and storytelling to Behringer-Crawford Museum's Music@BCM summer concert series.Born, raised and still residing in Northern Kentucky, Bertsch didn't discover his singing talent until he landed the lead role in his senior class play at Bishop Brossart High School. Music soon became a lifelong passion. While building a career in education and raising a family, he continued performing throughout the region before shifting his focus from cover songs to writing and performing original music.Known for heartfelt songwriting and an engaging stage presence, Bertsch draws inspiration from family stories, everyday life and the people and places that make Northern Kentucky special. His newest single, Tri-State Love, is a nod to the communities, landmarks and experiences that make the Tri-State region unique. Through his songs and stories, Bertsch shares a genuine appreciation for the place he's always called home.The 2026 schedule continues with:July 2: The Brotherhood Singers andSteve Bonafel & One IotaJuly 9: The NewbeesJuly 16: The TurkeysJuly 23: Gina & JohnnyJuly 30: Marty Connor BandAug. 6: The Hot MagnoliasAug. 13: Soul PocketWeather permitting, concerts are held outdoors at Behringer-Crawford Museum, located at 1600 Montague Road in Covington.
