Crossroads Cultural Connections will present Chloe Hoecker in concert at Bishop Hill Creative Commons on Thursday, Feb 5.

Often referred to as “Missouri’s Country Sweetheart,” Hoecker brings together hardworking grit, honest songwriting and powerful vocals with a warm, engaging stage presence.

A seasoned performer since the age of ten, Hoecker has played hundreds of acoustic country shows throughout Missouri, earning a reputation for energetic performances and a voice that balances sweetness with just the right amount of sass.

Before entering her twenties, Hoecker began focusing deeply on songwriting, crafting lyrics and melodies that are intensely personal yet widely relatable. Her music explores a wide emotional range, inviting listeners to feel everything from nostalgia and pride to pain and quiet reflection. While she doesn’t confine herself to a single sub-genre of country music, her commitment is clear: to create and perform original songs that make both her and her audience feel something.

Currently splitting time between the stage and studio sessions in Nashville, Hoecker released four singles in 2025 and is preparing to unveil her debut EP in early 2026. And while her sound continues to evolve, two things remain constant: she’s never afraid to speak her mind – politely, of course, and there’s always a fiddle somewhere in the mix.

This concert offers a chance to catch a rising country songwriter in an intimate setting, connecting directly with the stories and songs that are quickly earning her fans across the Midwest and beyond.

The evening will begin with an optional potluck dinner at 6 p.m. followed by the concert at 7 p.m.. This is an all-ages show, with a suggested donation of $20–30.
