Biography
Daniel “Hurricane” Gilbert, born 18 March 1974 in Hindås, Härryda Municipality, Sweden, is a Swedish musician, singer-guitarist, and songwriter. He first came to prominence as a founding member of the influential indie rock band Broder Daniel in the late 1980s, which he formed with classmates including Henrik Berggren and Håkan Hellström during their school years in Gothenburg. Gilbert played bass and guitar in Broder Daniel before leaving the band in 1995.
Following his early work with Broder Daniel, Gilbert became a key collaborator and longtime member of Håkan Hellström’s band as guitarist and vocalist, contributing to several of Hellström’s albums and tours through the 2000s and early 2010s. He also performed with groups such as Augustifamiljen, Theodor Jensen, and Avantgardet, and has built a varied solo career with releases that span genres from indie rock to soul and americana.
Nicknamed “Hurricane” by friends—a name later immortalized in Hellström’s song “Hurricane Gilbert”—Gilbert is regarded as a distinctive figure in Swedish rock, noted for his rich contributions both on stage and in songwriting. In recent years he has continued to release solo material, including the album Rekviem, and shares stories from his decades-long musical journey in live performances and talks.
