Vance Gilbert

Saturday, May 29, 8 pm


An electrifying songwriter and a fearless, compelling performer, Vance Gilbert presents his music with deep humanism and bravery, stunning artistry and soul, and unbridled joy. His tunes are pop-catchy, his lyrics are superbly crafted, his guitar playing is fluid and lyrical, and his warm tenor voice is flexible and acrobatic. Finishing a year and a half as support for the late George Carlin is the most recent chapter in Gilbert's varied and successful performance history. He unflinchingly renders blame and absolution, trapped hearts and free-riders, class and station, uncertainty and resolution, the spiritual and the visceral, the forever and the now, all side by side in song. Join the loyal Vance-heads for this show, and your idea of what folk music can be will change forever. Needham-based songwriter Margaret Sargent, who is gaining a strong local following, will open.
