Vance burst onto the singer/songwriter scene in the early 1990s when the buzz started spreading in the folk clubs of Boston about an ex-multicultural arts teacher who was knocking 'em dead at open mics. Word of the Philadelphia-area bred performer quickly spread to New York City– then Shawn Colvin invited Gilbert to be a special guest on her Fat City national tour, and Vance Gilbert took audiences across the country by storm.
Vance continues to refine his unlikely union of humor, virtuosity, and the unexpected. Whether with classic, original songwriting or ageless interpretations of covers, his is a presentation steeped in deep humanism and bravery, stunning artistry and soul, and contagious, unbridled joy - inarguably the blue ribbons that tie and seal the seemingly impossible package that is... Vance Gilbert.
