“Create a resounding holiday rock orchestra,” that was the 2002 vision of Twelve Twenty-Four co-founders George Houseknecht, Richie Kossuth, Lenny Kucinski, and Jason Santos.  A vision that was not only fulfilled, but one that energetically continues to this day. 

Since its inception, the band has evolved from a five-piece rock band to a complete rock orchestra.  Over the years, Twelve Twenty-Four built upon the core rock band by adding a multi-member string section, several featured vocalists, and a dedicated road crew.  Although they only perform during the holiday season, Twelve Twenty-Four is a year-round project.  Behind-the-scenes production occurs throughout the year and rehearsals begin during the summer.  Their tour season begins in mid-November and continues through the end of the holiday season. 

Inspired by the music and stage presentation of some of music’s greatest rock orchestras, Twelve Twenty-Four presents a show that involves high-energy rock music combined with professional stage effects including theatrical lighting, smoke, and even snow.  If it appears to be a considerable effort for a month and a half of shows, Music Director Jason Santos said there are good reasons the group tours each year. “The way people come back every year … it’s emotionally charging.  It’s uplifting when people are talking and they say it starts their Christmas off or they’re having a bad day and needed some spiritual uplifting,” Santos said. 


As a special bonus for this year's performance, The Newton Theatre is offering discounts on group tickets for families and organizations; every order of $150 or more receives $10 off, automatically applied at checkout.
