Bobby Helms

"Jingle Bell Rock" is an American Christmas classic first recorded by Bobby Helms in 1957, written by Joseph Carleton Beal and James Ross Boothe. It has received consistent radio airplay every holiday season since its release and is widely regarded as Helms's signature song. For electric guitar players, it offers a satisfying rockabilly-influenced rhythm part and a memorable lead line that makes it a rewarding and recognizable seasonal piece to learn.

  • The song has been a Christmas radio staple in the United States every year since its original 1957 release.
  • Session guitarist Hank Garland played on the original recording and reportedly disputed the official songwriting credits.
  • Bobby Helms and Hank Garland both challenged the claim that Beal and Boothe were the sole composers of the song.
