Gary Hoey's "HO HO HOEY Rockin’ Holiday Tour"


2025 marks the 30th Anniversary of HO HO HOEY! In 1995 Gary Hoey created the first ever full album of rock instrumental holiday classics in his bedroom on an 8-track recorder. His love for Christmas music came from his beloved mother and growing up in Boston set the backdrop for many great holiday memories.


Gary’s HO HO HOEY Rockin’ Holiday Tour has become a cherished holiday tradition for families and radio stations around the world. His success behind instrumental rock Christmas music started after his version of “The Twelve Days of Christmas” hit the airwaves with its classical arrangement and metal flavor. The show is a unique fusion of holiday cheer and electrifying rock 'n' roll, masterminded by the virtuoso guitarist.


Hoey’s prolific career has spanned over 30 years and 21 albums in various genres. It’s his amazing talent and love for his fans that have made him immensely popular with audiences of all ages. Joining him is his amazing son, Ian Hoey on guitar.


Gary Hoey’s music is featured in Hallmark greeting cards and "Deck The Halls" which is featured in the movie starring Danny Devito. It has also made him fortunate enough to give back in the process, helping the veterans with clothing drives, Toys for Tots and food drives. Bring the whole family together and celebrate this holiday season as only Gary Ho! Ho! Hoey can.
