What Is Sound + Vision Cambridge?

Sound + Vision is a multi-venue festival taking place across 8 stages in various venues in Cambridge across three days and nights from Thursday 21st April to Saturday 23rd April. The festival will feature over 70 acts (both new and established) from the worlds of music and comedy.

Additionally there will be a conference programme taking place during the daytime aimed at those working in, or aiming to work in, the music and creative industries with expert speakers from across the whole sector.


Four arms, four legs, two heads, wood, metal and plastic. JOHN. It's a cryptic and unsearchable band name but it serves an important manifesto. Not only is it logical - with the duo being comprised of John Newton (drums/lead vocals) and Johnny Healey (guitar/backing vocals) -but it's deliberately mundane, a response to the sensationalism that was often promoted through rock music when JOHN began playing together in 2013. "It's a bit like shooting yourself in the foot," explains Newton, "but it helps remind you that the creative drive is what's central to the project. The sensational collateral is just cladding that can easily become a hindrance to your intentions."

Drawing inspiration from the DIY approach of independent enterprises such as Dischord Records, the pair formed in London's East End opting to self-manage, self-release and self-distribute, adopting an ethos that's served as an antidote to the reality of the day jobs required to exist in an ever-inflating city.

Doors - 7pm
Goldblume - 7.30pm
Genn - 8.15pm
