Waterfront Concert: Gary Hoey

Gary Hoey at Waterfront Park in Newburyport as part of Yankee Homecoming

The Yankee Homecoming Waterfront Concert Series invites you to enjoy rock and roll on the waterfront with Gary Hoey. With a collection of 21 albums it’s no wonder Gary Hoey is listed as one of the top 100 guitarists of all time.  The world renowned rock guitarist’s first break came in 1987 when Ozzy Osbourne liked Hoey’s tape enough to fly him to LA for an audition and encouraging him to move to the West Coast.
