About this concert
Janice Burns & Jon Doran are an Anglo-Scottish duo who came together after discovering a shared love of traditional music. They find their songs in archives that span the depths of our history ? songs that tell vivid stories about the nature of life and our place in the world.
Janice & Jon?s compelling storytelling comes alive through tight vocal harmonies and sensitive interplay between mandolin, bouzouki, and guitar. Their arrangements have a spellbinding presence and an understated energy that transports their songs from the pages of books and manuscripts into the imagination of the listener.
Two ticket prices - We're committed to bringing high quality roots music to Cambridge at affordable prices and as a result our standard ticket price remains at £8. However, if you'd like to see the artist take home a little more (over 90% of our ticket profit goes to artists), then there is now an option to pay slightly more (£10) if you are able to.
If tickets remain then they will be sold on-the-door, but at a higher price.

Couldn't make the nearest tour date, so it was great to be able to watch Janice & Jon play thanks to this 'Live to your Living Room' show. Wonderful harmonies, brilliant musicianship and great stage banter.

Janice Burns & Jon Doran Biography
Janice Burns & Jon Doran are an Anglo-Scottish duo who formed in 2017, after discovering a shared love of traditional music. They find their songs in archives that span the depths of our history; songs that, regardless of age, tell vivid stories about the nature of life, from the ethereal landscapes of ancient ballads to the urban rhythms of work songs. Their compelling storytelling comes alive through tight vocal harmonies and sensitive interplay between mandolin and bouzouki, with arrangements that balance intricacy with energy. Their dynamic performances are a celebration of their own musical and geographic backgrounds, embracing the differences that connect them.
The duo met whilst studying folk and traditional music at Newcastle University, spending one year at the University of South-East Norway together. These experiences allowed them to hone their craft whilst expanding their audiences further beyond the UK. After 3 years of working together and performing in notable venues such as Sage Gateshead and Folklub Newcastle, they decided to record their debut EP. It was released in September 2020 to overwhelmingly positive feedback.
