Bio Text
Short Bio
Gerbman is a young blues guitarist from Rotterdam who took the tradition seriously from day one. Together with drummer Dick Sol and bassist Johan Bravenboer, Gerbman & Blues Flood is a power trio built around Stratocaster tone, tube amps and the raw energy of classic electric blues.
Full Bio
Gerbman, born on February 17, 2005 in Rotterdam, is a Dutch blues guitarist representing a new generation of European blues rock. Playing guitar since the age of nine, he developed his style by studying the masters, especially Stevie Ray Vaughan, B.B. King, Albert King, Freddie King, Jimi Hendrix, and Eric Clapton. On June 19, 2025, the definitive power trio Gerbman & Blues Flood was formed. The band delivers high energy blues rock driven by groove, dynamics, and extended improvisation. The sound is built around vintage inspired tube tone, expressive phrasing, and the raw interaction of a tight rhythm section. Gerbman plays with intensity, but always with feel. The focus is long term career building, strong live performances, and a recognizable tone that stands out immediately.
