Up the Junction

Comedian Sophie Duker, pictured, will be performing at Cambridge Junction on 30 January. Her stand-up show, But Daddy I Love Her , coincides with Independent Venue Week (27 Jan to 2 Feb) – a seven-day celebration of independent music and arts venues that recognises the vital role they play in nurturing new talent. “It’s good to be part of a campaign like this,” says Rob Tinkler, who has worked at the Junction for the last 30 years. “It lets people see that there’s more to live music than what you see on TV and enormous stadium events. If it weren’t for small venues like ours, you wouldn’t have people like Taylor Swift because they wouldn’t have had anywhere to start out.” See junction.co.uk for more events.
