ABOUT GERBIL BOB:
Gerbil Bob are a pop-punk covers band based in Guisborough, in the North East
of England. We came together early 2001 as a four piece and played our first gig at The
Dickens Inn, Middlesbrough on April 5th 2001. In late June 2001, we added a new member - Jason - who plays guitar and does backing vocals, our first gig as a five piece was fittingly enough, also at The Dickens Inn. We mainly play covers of pop-songs
in the punk style such as "Genie In A Bottle", "Crocodile Rock" and "Whole Again".
Late on in July 2001, the band parted company with guitarist Lee, as it was felt the band had gone as far as they could with the line-up as it was. This made the band a four piece once again with Jason been the only guitarist, only a month after joining the band and only a couple of months before he will leave for University. Despite all of this, the band have been going from strength to strength and with the recent arrival of a new guitarist - Stesh from NoHope Wunders - Gerbil Bob should continue to play pop-punk-covers for a while longer! Bassist Stephen Jones briefly quit the band in August 2001, but rejoined just four days after he had quit!
