Old Spot (Rowan Piggott & Joe Danks) burst onto the scene in 2023 with a critically acclaimed debut album and a whirlwind UK tour, quickly establishing themselves as a fresh force in old-time music. Praised for their raw energy and expressive musicianship, the duo lit up stages across UK/EU folk, bluegrass, and old-time festivals.

Now, in 2026, Old Spot continue to push the boundaries of stringband tradition – digging deeper into the roots of old-time while crafting a live show that’s equal parts intimate and electrifying. Their forthcoming album, recorded in the Scottish Borders, captures this evolving sound with fresh material and atmospheric arrangements. Whether trading close harmonies, ripping into a tune, or experimentally reworking a classic, Old Spot captivate audiences with a sound that’s both steeped in tradition and boldly original.

Three ticket prices - We're committed to bringing high quality roots music to Cambridge at affordable prices , and as such our advance ticket price is £12. However, if you'd like to see the artist take home a little more (over 80% of our ticket profit goes to artists), then there is now an option to pay slightly more (£14) if you are able to. There are also a very limited number of no-questions-asked concession tickets (£10).

If tickets remain then they will be sold on-the-door, but at a higher price.
