Lizzie Rose Music Room presents David Jacobs-Strain and Bob Beach on Friday

originally published: 12/01/2025


(TUCKERTON, NJ) -- The Lizzie Rose Music Room presents David Jacobs-Strain and Bob Beach on Friday, December 5, 2025. They are a multigenerational, bicoastal duo who have been performing together since 2010. Doors are at 7:00pm, showtime is 7:30pm.

David Jacob-Strain is a striking slide guitar player and song poet from Eugene, Oregon. His deep love of blues and roots music is evident in every one of the songs he writes. He studied masters like Robert Johnson, Taj Mahal and Jackson Browne, but plays his own sound, his own song, with a virtuosity that is uniquely his.

​Bob Beach plays harmonica with calm fierceness. A mouth-harp maestro who swaggers into a solo like The Marlboro Man, then quietly leaves the set while the rest of us wonder what just happened and how such a tiny instrument could possibly sound like that. Bob has been a working professional musician for more than 40 years bringing harmonica, flute, and vocals to a broad scope of genres.

Tickets are $30 and available for purchase online. Admission is $40 at the door. The Lizzie Rose Music Room is located at 217 East Main Street in Tuckerton, New Jersey. Free parking is available.

The duo currently perform between 70 and 100 shows a year on both east and west coasts, delighting and bewildering roots music lovers. It is always music for the soul.
