The 2023 Rockefeller Christmas tree was donated by the drummer for Gym Class Heroes:
Matt and Jackie McGinley knew the Norway spruce that towered over their Vestal home near Binghamton was impressive.
They just didn’t know how impressive. Try good enough for the Rockefeller Center.
Matt, a Geneva native, founding member of rock-rap band Gym Class Heroes and a music composer, and his wife, Jackie, a professor at Binghamton University, donated the massive tree that will begin shining over the New York City plaza this week.
