One-man rock and blues show from London in which Cam Cole plays guitar and footdrums, backed by his New Age Collective.
Cam Cole plays The Craufurd Arms on Friday 5 March, with doors opening at 19:00. He's a London-based one-man rock band who started out busking in Camden Town, staying there until the crowds grew too large for the pavement. From those street corners he went to international tours, with an Emmy-winning appearance in Ted Lasso and an Amazon Prime documentary that followed his first American tour. He's released several albums and played to sold-out audiences across Europe, North America and Australia.
On stage he plays guitar and his Farmer Footdrums, backed by his New Age Collective gang. They describe the sound as a blend of delta blues, folk, grunge, stoner rock and metal. The set is built around his catalogue, including the fan favourite 'Mama', the tune that soundtracked living rooms nationwide via a Rightmove campaign, alongside new material from the album Lost in Creation. That record pushes his sound beyond the foot-stomping ferocity of his earlier work, adding layered textures, unexpected instrumentation and desert-blues and psychedelic flourishes.

It's a one-man operation at its core, but the New Age Collective fills out the sound for the live show. The set draws from both the older songs and the newer material from Lost in Creation, so you'll hear the familiar stuff alongside the more recent, textured direction he's taken. Tickets are £18.50 face value, plus a £2.22 booking fee, coming to £20.72 in total. Doors open at 19:00 at The Craufurd Arms, 59 Stratford Road, Milton Keynes, MK12 5LT.
