Vance Gilbert at the Night Eagle Café
Be it his musicality, his incredible vocals, his poignant songs or his fiery wit, Vance Gilbert will blow your mind!
“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", says Richmond
Magazine.
Considered by many to be an integral part of the national folk scene - and one of the originators of the
finally recognized R&B/Folk/Jazz crossover-sub-genre - this Boston-based stalwart was born and raised in
the Philadelphia area. In 1992, Shawn Colvin invited him to be special guest on her Fat City tour. “With the
voice of an angel, the wit of a devil, and the guitar playing of a god...”, swooned The Fort Worth Star-
Telegram about one of those shows.
Gilbert has recorded 14 albums to date, including 5 for Philo/Rounder Records. He's been the opener of choice for artists as varied as Arlo Guthrie, Anita Baker, The Milk Carton Kids, and Southside Johnny, and the mid 2000s found Gilbert opening 150+ shows for comic legend George Carlin! He's currently the regular opener for Mad About You/Stranger Things star Paul Reiser’s stand-up shows, and he maintains his own busy acoustic music touring schedule. He even has a tune on a Grammy-nominated children’s album. How rounded is that?
