Gnome are a stoner rock group from Antwerp, Belgium consisting of Rutger Verbist, Egon Loosveldt, and Geoffrey Verhulst. They have released three studio albums, Father of Time (2018), King (2022), and Vestiges of Verumex Visidrome (2024).
Described as "backyard music" or "bubble grunge", they are known for whimsical or silly themes in their songwriting with heavy riffs. They are easily identified by red pointed hats associated with garden gnomes, which fans will also wear during live performances.
Lead vocalist/guitarist Rutger Verbist had a long history of creating songs he deemed "silly" or "for laughs", until writing the song "Fuzz Lightyear" in September 2015, convincing him he could form a band grounded in a fun yet heavy sound. He created an ad for a drummer and recruited Egon Loosveldt soon thereafter, envisioning the group as a duo. However, Verbist's longtime friend Geoffrey Verhulst would be recruited to handle bass playing, as Verbist was not able to play bass at the time. They played with names, originally playing as Sleepless Titan, until they settled on Gnome in 2016, deriving from that of the mythical creature.
