Vance Thompson Quartet

Vibraphonist Vance Thompson brings his quartet featuring pianist Taber Gable & bassist Taylor Coker to Hotel Eve for an evening of music from his latest album, Lost and Found, which The Times of London heralded as “a joyous, jubilant portrait of musical rebirth,” and an “irresistible album.” Thompson enjoyed a successful career as a trumpeter for many years before a medical issue forced him to change course. Discovering the vibraphone provided a new lease on musical life.

Jack Bowers, writing for All About Jazz, had this to say: “what is most remarkable is that Thompson sounds like he has been playing the vibraphone all his life….While regret for what Thompson lost is understandable, delight in what he found is even more appropriate, especially in light of this remarkable illustration of his composure and endurance. As Sinatra once sang, there are times when things can be ‘even lovelier, the second time around.’”
