Harmony vocal trio Carolina Rain consists of Rhean Boyer (guitar), Jeremy Baxter (mandolin), and Marvin Evatt (banjo, guitar). Boyer (who grew up in Virginia Beach) and Evatt (whose background was in musical theater) met at Belmont University in Nashville while both were working as campus security guards. Quickly becoming friends, the pair ended up writing songs in their squad car during down time.
