Riley Green is bringing acoustic guitar to the holiday fireplace this season in a three-hour Yule Log video created through his partnership with footwear brand HEYDUDE. The video places the country singer beside a decorated Christmas tree, playing guitar as a fire crackles in the background.
Green appears in a festive Nordic-style crewneck sweater and HEYDUDE shoes. The extended video offers a holiday backdrop for activities such as decorating, baking or simply relaxing at home. Rather than a conventional fireplace-only Yule Log, this version features Green’s guitar playing as part of its atmosphere.
The release comes alongside a new HEYDUDE Christmas commercial featuring Green. The one-minute ad builds its humor around a Christmas gift: a woman gives her husband a pair of the brand’s shoes, and the story imagines him transforming into a Riley Green lookalike.
In the commercial’s playful fantasy, the husband takes on Green’s 6-foot-4-inch stature, handyman skills, throwing arm and guitar-playing charm. HEYDUDE presents the imagined change as a “comfort miracle,” turning the footwear gift into the premise for a holiday makeover.
The two pieces offer different takes on the collaboration. The commercial uses a comic transformation to promote the shoes, while the three-hour video leans into a quieter seasonal setting with Green and his guitar. Green is also familiar to television audiences as a coach on “The Voice.”
HEYDUDE’s Yule Log arrives as some people are already settling into the Christmas season, while others may consider the festivities early. For fans looking for a longer holiday soundtrack, the video stretches the fireplace scene across three hours, with Green’s acoustic playing at its center.
