Biography

Shawn Gerhard: The Ultimate Garth Brooks Tribute Artist

When it comes to authentic country music tributes, few performers can match the energy, charisma, and vocal power of Shawn Gerhard as Garth Brooks. With decades of experience and a passion that runs deep, Shawn has earned a national reputation as one of the top Garth Brooks tribute artists in the country.

Shawn’s journey began in the early 1990s — a time when country music was undergoing a massive transformation thanks to the rise of superstar Garth Brooks. Inspired by Garth’s unique blend of rock-infused country and high-energy stage presence, Shawn honed his craft, performing across the United States from the East Coast to the West Coast.

Throughout his career, Shawn has opened for some of country music’s biggest legends, including Alan Jackson, Brooks & Dunn, Tim McGraw, and many more. His dedication to the genre and his uncanny ability to channel Garth Brooks has led to the creation of his own touring production: The Ultimate Garth Brooks Tribute.

What sets Shawn apart? Authenticity. His performances aren’t just concerts — they’re immersive experiences. During Garth Brooks’ retirement, even his longtime keyboardist Dave Gant joined Shawn on stage, bringing an added layer of realism and credibility to the tribute.
