If you’re happy to travel up to an hour and a bit from Cambridge there are some gigs this month further afield worth checking out. Richard Ashcroft (pictured) is at The O2 if you saw him at Newmarket last summer and want more. Colchester’s Pet Needs are up in Norwich towards the end of the month (as well as Colchester on 15th). Esquires in Bedford have Mae Stephens, who you might have seen supporting Anne Marie in Thetford a couple of years ago. The Apex in Bury hosts the final of this year’s BurySOUND competition.
