Vance Gilbert in the Oasis Room at Garde Arts Center

Singer-songwriter Vance Gilbert will perform in the Oasis Room at the Garde Arts Center in New London on Thursday, April 10, 2025, at 8:00 pm. Known for his genre-defying blend of R&B, folk, and jazz, Gilbert brings a powerful voice, quick wit, and soulful guitar to the stage. Praised by Richmond Magazine as “what you’d get if Joni Mitchell and Richie Havens had a love child, with Rodney Dangerfield as the midwife,” Gilbert has shared stages with Shawn Colvin, Arlo Guthrie, George Carlin, and more.

A veteran of major folk festivals and venues worldwide, Gilbert continues to captivate audiences with his dynamic performances and heartfelt songwriting. His ongoing Monday Night Acoustic Pajama Party livestream has become a fan favorite, and his latest album Good Good Man includes collaborations with artists across multiple genres.

Tickets are $28–$32. The Garde Arts Center is located at 325 State Street, New London, CT 06320. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit gardearts.org or call (860) 444-7373.
