Van Brookes

Mount Maunganui born multi-instrumentalist, Van Brookes, hails far from the music synonymous with NZ. Being raised on 60’s through 80’s Brit-rock, 50’s crooners and Americana, also living abroad throughout Australia and the United Kingdom, Van pulls from elements of country, folk, blues, and rock to create a truly unique sound. Paired with confident hands on the neck of a guitar, striking vocals, and lyrics far exceeding his years, Van Brookes is one to keep an eye on for the future. Van can bounce seamlessly from acoustic guitar to electric (and banjo if it suits him), looping in between, able to tailor himself perfectly to the energy that surrounds him. If you’re after the authentic country and blues experience, Van Brookes is the perfect choice for your event.
