When Hooley moved 3,000 miles from a small town in Alaska, the chances of meeting Rob Stroup, from a small town in Oregon, were pretty slim. But it happened. From the moment they met it was clear they were destined to combine their musical tal- ents. Stroup is the perfect producer, co-writer and band mate for Hooley’s melod- ic, energetic and thoughtful folk-pop songs. A prolific songwriter with a vocal signature, Hooley’s voice has been called “cool and powerful” and her song- writing “masterful.” She combines the melodic sen- sibilities of the great folk writers of the ’70s like Jim Croce, Gordon Lightfoot and James Taylor with vocal abilities of Adele or Annie Lennox. Stroup’s musical back- ground brings a whole other set of sounds and inÀuences. A founding member of Port- land’s roots-rock combo The Baseboard Heaters, Stroup draws on ’60s rock and clas- sic country inÀuences and is also inÀuenced by the Okla- homa sound of JJ Cale and the bluesy sides of Bob Dylan. Together they cover a lot of ground and meld together in a cohesive act. Their newest album, “Wild Places,” was re- leased in October. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. The Peninsula Arts Center is located at 504 Pacific Ave. N. Admission is $12 at the door, online through Brown Paper Tickets, or call 360- Submitted photo Naomi Hooley and Rob Stroup’s newest album, “Wild Places,” was released in October. 901-0962. Wine, beer, and other refreshments are avail- able for purchase. Concerts benefit the Long Beach Peninsula Acoustic Music Association, a 501(c)3 nonprofit charita- ble organization.
