LONG BEACH, Wash. — Hear
popular music from the
1920s through the 1940s,
including hot jazz, blues and
Hawaiian instrumentals, at
the Peninsula Arts Center.
The venue will host The
Hey-Ho Trio for a concert at
7 p.m. Saturday, July 9.
The trio is half of
Portland’s swing band the
Midnight Serenaders. The
Hey-Ho Trio formed in
2005, putting together a
sound reminiscent of the
small swing combos popular
during the ’20s and ’30s,
adding a Hawaiian lavor
with the inclusion of ukulele
and Hawaiian steel guitar.
Led by crooner and rhythm
guitarist Doug Sammons,
the trio’s repertoire consists
of gems from the past, as
well as vintage-sounding
original songs. The group is
illed out with Dee Settlemi-
er and Doc Stein.
Sammons began his jour-
ney into American folk and
roots music as a member of

New York City jug band The
Metropolecats. Soon after
relocating to the West Coast
in 1991, he helped form one
of Oregon’s most respected
bluegrass groups, Sam Hill.
Dee Settlemier, a vocal-
ist who also plays guitar,
mandolin, banjo and ukulele,
has been writing songs and
singing for as long as she can
remember. She was a found-
ing member of the acoustic
folk-rock group Mad Hattie.
More recently there’s been a
buzz about Settlemier’s other
project, the Libertine Belles,
an all-female vocal group.
Doc Stein, who plays
Hawaiian steel guitar, grew
up on the East Coast playing
country and western swing,
ragtime and blues on guitar,
banjo and dobro. In 1985 he
moved to the Portland area,
where he played in vari-
ous bands including Retta
and the Smart Fellas and
Fritz Richmond’s Barbe-
que Orchestra. He has also
toured with various bands
while sailing the southern
Caribbean and was a part of
the Voice of Asia Festival in
Kazakhstan, representing the
U.S. in a swing trio.
The Peninsula Arts Cen-
ter is located at 504 Paciic
Ave. N. Admission is $12 at
the door, by calling 360-
