EARLIER: The Rock Island Public Library’s Tuneful Tuesday series continues in 2024 with a Jan. 9 performance by Quad City favorites Tony Hoeppner and Friends. The free noon performances fall on the first Tuesday of each month at the Downtown Library, 401 19th St., Rock Island.
Veteran Quad City musician Tony Hoeppner will be joined by friends Ron Wilson and Jim VanAcker, playing a variety of acoustic classic and cover songs, along with old and new original compositions. Their set-list includes classic and folk rock, blues, R&B and country tunes. “It’s all about having a good time with the music,” says their Facebook page.
