Hermanus (Herman) Brood (Zwolle, 5 November 1946 – Amsterdam, 11 July 2001) was a Dutch singer, painter, pianist, actor and author. Brood distinguished himself with his characteristic singing voice and musical diversity. With the flamboyant lifestyle he desired and consciously displayed, he became the Dutch embodiment of the hedonistic credo Sex, drugs & rock 'n' roll. Brood eventually showed standard withdrawal symptoms such as incontinence, epilepsy and delirium tremens after years of frequent and excessive amphetamine and alcohol use. Four months before his fifty-fifth birthday, he committed suicide by jumping from the roof of the Amsterdam Hilton Hotel, with a suicide note in his pocket.
Biography
An anecdote about his boyhood is that Brood's family doctor in 1953 supposedly stated that Brood, with his colour blindness, could become anything except a painter. He had his first piano lessons in 1959. He did not do well at school: he preferred to tinker on a piano in his father's run-down factory in Zwolle. Brood went to the Art Academy in Arnhem in 1964 and became a member of the local beat group The Moans. The band performed a lot for American soldiers in West Germany and Brood was sometimes given a pill to stay awake. That's how his addiction began. In 1967 he switched to Cuby and the Blizzards (album Groeten uit Grollo). He met Tekie Buissink, with whom he had a short-lived relationship. On 24 May 1968 their son Marcel was born. When the record company found out that he was using drugs, he was thrown out of the band. An unclear period followed in which Brood regularly ended up in prison for burglaries and drug trafficking.

Early 1974 Brood participated in a Cuby and the Blizzards reunion for the VARA television program Nederpopzien. From this moment he picked up his musical career again. He played for a short time in the North Holland formation Stud and recorded an album with Jan Akkerman among others under the name Flash & Dance Band. He then joined the band Vitesse. After the debut album in 1975 he left again.
Herman Brood (1979)
In 1976, a crucial meeting took place. Brood was playing again in Cuby and the Blizzards, which had been re-formed for a short time, when he dropped the needle of his syringe in a wastepaper basket in café 't Pleintje in Winschoten. The owner of the café, Koos van Dijk, came in when Brood was looking in the wastepaper basket for his needle. Instead of throwing Brood out, Van Dijk turned the wastepaper basket over and diligently helped him search. From that moment on, Van Dijk acted as Brood's agent; he would remain so until Brood's death in 2001.
1977 - 1981 The heyday of Herman Brood & His Wild Romance
Brood left Cuby and the Blizzards and started his own formation Herman Brood & His Wild Romance (see also: Wild Romance). In 1977 the album Street was released, which was received enthusiastically. In 1978 Shpritsz followed. The single Saturday Night became a big hit. Germany and France became interested. Brood worked on the film Cha Cha by Herbert Curiël in 1979 and married punk opera singer Nina Hagen in the film. He also released a carnival song "Maak van uw scheet een donderslag" with some members of his band, under the name De Breedbekkikkers. In the same year he left for the United States. But an American tour was not a success and the album Go Nutz (1980) produced in the US was criticized both there and in the Netherlands. Brood's career collapsed as a result.
