When @dublonde.bsky.social played Scala back in February, I said how much I’d enjoyed it despite them not being fully fit.
Well, on Wednesday night they came to Cambridge’s #PortlandArms, firing on all cylinders. Great show - and candid stories - to a packed house.

I’ve kicked myself for missing a couple of London shows, so I was very pleased to see the #PortlandArms on C Duncan’s itinerary for his latest tour. A solo set with a clever mix of the electronic with the acoustic. A thoroughly lovely evening.

No better way of spending a Bank Holiday evening than being in the crowd for #PrimaQueen at the #PortlandArms in Cambridge last night. Musical and joyful and thoughtful in equal measure. Everything that a gig in a grassroots venue should be.

It was so good to have #LittleComets back in Cambridge on Thursday night. Two great sets, a packed #PortlandArms… and maybe it’s just my memory, but I don’t recall their vocal harmonies being so strong, last time around. A properly good live band.

I enjoyed the inevitable onslaught (his words) of @lukesitalsingh.bsky.social at the #PortlandArms in Cambridge tonight. “Santa Fe” and “Nearly Morning” were my highlights of an emotional one-man set full of new songs and old.
