Vance Gilbert

“If Joni Mitchell and Richie Havens had a love child, with Rodney Dangerfield as the midwife, the results might be something close to the great Vance Gilbert." - Richmond Magazine

Tickets: $30 (fees not included)

Considered by many to be an integral part of the national folk scene, Boston-based singer/songwriter Vance Gilbert is one of the originators of the finally recognized R&B/Folk/Jazz crossover-sub-genre.

In addition to being the opener of choice for artists as varied as Arlo Guthrie, Anita Baker, Shawn Colvin, The Milk Carton Kids, and Southside Johnny, he’s currently the regular opener for Mad About You/Stranger Things star Paul Reiser’s stand-up shows.

Vance's newest album, “The Mother Of Trouble”, features Grammy-winner Lori McKenna on background vocals, Juno award-recipient and Bonnie Raitt Grammy hit song co-writer Joey Landreth on guitars, and master mandolinist Joe K. Walsh, among others.
