Brook Gibson

Quick witted, charming and all round DIY master. Brook is a creative force, making waves in the radio world as the beloved co-host on George FM drive. Boasting over 14,000 followers on Instagram and 12,000 on TikTok, Brook truly is New Zealands up-and-coming superstar in the broadcasting and content creating scene.

Born in London, Brook made his way to New Zealand when he was 8 years old and grew up in the 'Mighty Waikato!' It was here he found a love for motorbikes, electronic music, sports and all things DIY. Brook left school and took on a motorbike mechanic apprenticeship, the garage he worked at happened to be right next to his favourite radio station - George FM. Brook would often pop into the studio to help out, all while working on his technical and DJ skills.

Upon completion of his apprenticeship he longed for an adventure and set off to travel abroad, working on super yachts making connections all over the world. He would still be doing this had an old acquaintance not called up and asked him to host the main stage at the infamous Rhythm and Vines festival in Gisborne!
Brook made the trip home to RnV and had the time of his life MCing NZ’s biggest festival! Realising he was a natural performer and had a lot to say, he enrolled in radio school! This is where Brook found his true calling. Brook graduated and was offered the nights-host role at George FM, working double time at Coleman's Suzuki on motorbikes to keep his mind mechanically ticking over. It was about this time that Brook was diagnosed with ADHD, something that made sense to him given his many passions and some of the challenges he had faced over the years.

In 2021 Brook and his long-time friend Sin Howard decided to pitch the idea of the George Fm Drive show - to put them both on the map and back their broadcasting and djing careers. The show has absolutely taken off, it's had Brook interviewing the biggest and best names in electronic music from all over the world, creating award nominated radio and content while attracting and pulling in a global audience. With their George Drive show socials attracting well over 250,000 followers! Brook and Sin also run a successful and widely listened to podcast.

Brook has also recently opened up about his ADHD diagnosis, making DIY TikTok videos that showcase how 'hyperfi xation' (a symptom of ADHD) can be a super power. With his love for educating, mechanics and having a good laugh, Brook is excited to collaborate on campaigns that align with his many passions.
