"I'm a cross between Pete Seeger and Don Rickles," said Vance Gilbert during his debut at the Narrows Saturday night.
This delightful self-effacing performer--who started in jazz and is a mainstay in the folk scene--charmed the audience with his soulful vocals and stand-up comedy stage banter.
When your humble blogger went "backstage" to shoot a behind-the-scenes photo (above) before the show, he rose to the challenge to make it fun and different.
As one of our longtime audience members (Fred) pointed out, a Vance Gilbert performance is a personal experience. It certainly was!
A sad note: Before the concert, Vance learned his 82 year old step father had just passed away in CT. Our condolences to him.
