Greg Hoy is back and ready to hit the road. With his new album Hit Music set to drop on March 14, the California rocker is launching his 2025 tour with a highly anticipated show at Dee’s Lounge in Nashville on March 7. For fans eager to hear his latest tracks live, this tour is more than just a series of performances—it’s a full-circle moment of resilience, reinvention, and raw, high-energy rock.
After a spinal arthritis diagnosis threatened his ability to play guitar, Hoy turned to drums, channeling his energy into a fresh, instinctual approach to songwriting. The result? Hit Music—an album that captures the urgency of live performance while layering in unexpected elements, including collaborations with German trumpeter Kelly O’Donohue and Pittsburgh saxophonist Ben Opie.
Sticking to his DIY ethos, Hoy played nearly every instrument on the album, crafting a sound that blends the grit of Jack White, the precision of Dave Grohl, and the boundary-pushing creativity of Phil Collins. With a horn section adding an unexpected punch, Hit Music feels like a greatest hits album—except every track is brand new.
The 2025 tour kicks off March 7 in Nashville, bringing Hoy’s signature intensity to small but mighty venues across the country, including New York City’s Baker Falls on album release night, March 14. For those ready to experience Hit Music in its purest form—loud, live, and unfiltered—this is a tour you don’t want to miss.
