AlanGerberSongs

Where energy, intellect and an unbridled passion for life intersect, there you’ll find the music of Alan Gerber. Possessing a rock ‘n roll swagger born from years in the musical trenches tempered by a soulful poet’s heart, Gerber has an extensive resume that includes working with Bob Dylan, Leon Russell and the Doors’ legendary producer Paul Rothchild.
A prolific songwriter and engaging live performer, Gerber is currently touring in support of his latest album The Grand and the Small, a potent collection that includes poignant ballads alongside quirky satire. “There’s some deep spiritual meaning to so many songs, and on the other hand there’s ‘Weasel Jerky,’” Gerber says, noting a particularly humorous number. “That’s going from the ridiculous to the sublime, covering the whole scope. That’s what it’s about because real life isn’t all one or the other.”
Gerber’s music captures real life and weaves it into a vibrant bluesy soundtrack that has mesmerized audiences on stages as expansive as the Montreal Jazz Festival and as intimate as a local house concert. Combining humor, heart and hope into songs that will make you laugh, cry, sigh and surrender is Gerber’s special gift. That’s what music does at its best, and it’s what Alan Gerber does every time he takes the stage.
