Folk singer/songwriter Vance Gilbert in Bristol

Posted

The Stone Church Coffee House at the First Congregational Church welcomes the popular folk artist, Vance Gilbert, this Saturday. Vance Gilbert burst onto the singer/songwriter scene in the early 1990's 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 quickly spread to New York City, then Shawn Colvin invited him to be a special guest on her Fat City national tour. Vance Gilbert took audiences across the country by storm. Eight accomplished albums later, Vance continues to refine his unlikely union of humor, virtuosity, and the unexpected.
