STUDIO BRUSSEL: "... met een authentieke stem en bakken sfeer. Het is niet
iedereen gegeven om dit soort muziek op een geloofwaardige manier te brengen,
maar Gertjan slaagt daar schijnbaar moeiteloos in. Klasse!"
RADIO 1: "... Was Ryan Adams een Vlaming geweest, dan heette hij Douglas Firs."
Cooper: “Sheriff, what kind of fantastic trees have you got around here? Big, majestic…”
Truman: “Douglas firs.”
Cooper: “Douglas firs…”

Douglas Firs is Gertjan Van Hellemont (°1987), zanger, gitarist en liedjesschrijver met
een voorliefde voor de popmelodieën van The Beatles, singer-songwiters als James Taylor
en Ryan Adams, de country-blues van North Mississippi Allstars en de Back to the
Future-trilogie. Al is dat iets anders.
Maar Douglas Firs is ook Gertjans rock-‘n-rollband met Christophe Claeys (drums,
percussie, zang), Sem Van Hellemont (toetsen, zang) en Simon Casier (bas, zang).
Douglas Firs rockt op de old school-manier. “Big, majestic…”
