CAMBRIDGE JUNCTION GIG ROUND-UP

Listed as one of the most exciting contemporary blues guitarists on the scene, Aynsley Lister comes to Cambridge on 6 March. He’ll be joined by his live band for a showcase of his latest studio album, Along for the Ride , which weaves stories about everyday life. Next up is King No-One, a dynamic alt-rock group from York. Now one of the biggest emerging guitar bands in the country, they’ll be taking the Junction by storm on 7 March. The Comet is Coming follow on 8 March, taking crowds to sonic vistas with their latest album, Hyper- Dimensional Expansion Beam . Their music fuses synths, drums, sax and shakuhachi (a traditional Japanese flute) to deliver a refreshing sound. Roachford + Acantha Lang deliver a compelling display of rock and soul on 9 March, while Turin Brakes share their ninth studio album, Wide-Eyed Nowhere , on 10 March. Belfast band Stiff Little Fingers take to the stage on 14 March, reviving the songs of their 1979 album, Inflammable Material – generally regarded as one of the greatest punk records of all time. On 16 March, Gloria Scott will fill the Junction with her soulful voice; she’s provided backing vocals for The Supremes and Tina Turner, and collaborated with Barry White on her own records. Elles Bailey is stopping by on 22 March – her smoky voice and laser-focused determination have seen her soar to the forefront of the British blues and roots scene. There’ll also be gigs from Cambridge-based Fred’s House, Scottish folk band Rura and Aussie icons The Cat Empire. Plus, one of the UK’s most electrifying rappers, Lowkey, will perform at his first ever Cambridge concert on 25 March. To see the full line-up for the month, head to junction.co.uk
