World renowned instrumental rock guitarist Gary Hoey forges new territory as a lead vocalist on his upcoming Surfdog release AMERICAN MADE on August 22nd. With 13 instrumental albums under his belt which have spawned several top rock radio hits. Gary proves that his incredible talent goes beyond his fingertips. This album features 12 new tracks including the first single LUNATIC FRINGE.
Multi-tasking as writer, producer and guitar player, Hoey has had clients who include DISNEY, ESPN,
NO FEAR, performed the National Anthem for the SAN DIEGO PADRES and the BOSTON REDSOX. Hoey’s first break came when Ozzy Osbourne showed up in Boston looking for a guitarist. Osbourne liked Hoey’s tape enough to fly him to LA for an audition. Three months after the audition, he was heading west in a U-Haul, with seventeen thousand dollars in his pocket from teaching guitar and nowhere to go once he got to L.A.
In 1993 Gary Hoey launched his career with the hit song "Hocus Pocus." his fiery technique helped to send it to the top 5 on Billboards charts, The Boston raised guitarist covered the tune on his debut album, Animal Instinct (Warner Bros Records), transforming Hoey, a then-struggling player into a cult hero. He followed with the soundtrack to the surf saga Endless Summer II (Warner/Reprise), which cemented his status as a demi-god among surfers. Even Dick Dale, the surf-guitar king gave Hoey his blessing, proclaiming him his favorite modern guitarist.
Hoey has maintained that status with a series of blood-boiling albums that are heavy on riffage while upholding the basic rock-and-roll values of melodies, hooks, and heart. Hes also diversified, creating his popular Ho! Ho! Hoey series of Christmas CDs.
Hoey has toured and traded licks with the likes of Brian May (Queen), Ted Nugent, Foreigner, Joe Satriani, The Doobie Bros, Kenny Wayne Shepard, Eric Johnson, Steve Vai, and Peter Frampton to name a few.

Great show at the Coach House last night guys! Saw you at the Belly Up this week too. Love the new tune "Only Human". That SHOULD be a major hit on the radio! Nice job singin', Gary. Your voice sounds better than ever. Hopefully, see ya again around Christmas! Thanks.
Hi Gary. Stopping by to say, "hello" & to pay my respects. I was coming to see the band in MA, but plans have changed at the last minute. Really disappointed cuz I was looking forward to it. Bummer. I'm really diggin' "Only Human". Can't seem to get enough of it. Voice is impeccable. I love my hard rock & metal, but like some women, to include myself, I wanna hear a soothing song once in awhile & this definately satisfies it. :) Enjoy the rest of the day Gary. Wish you & the guys only the best. Hope you guys can make it out here in MN and/or ND in your future planning/schedule. Would be awesome.
