Suzanne Vega at Cambridge Corn Exchange
Thursday February 23, 2023
£35.50 – £52.50After headlining Cambridge Folk Festival in July 2022, Suzanne Vega will be returning to Cambridge to perform at the Corn Exchange in February 2023.
Vega emerged as a leading figure of the folk-music revival of the early 1980s when, accompanying herself on acoustic guitar, she sang what has been called contemporary folk or neo-folk songs of her own creation in Greenwich Village clubs. Since the release of her self-titled, critically acclaimed 1985 debut album, she has given sold-out concerts in many of the world’s best-known venues. Known for performances that convey deep emotion, Vega’s distinctive, “clear, unwavering voice” (Rolling Stone) has been described as “a cool, dry sandpaper-brushed near-whisper” by The Washington Post, with NPR Music noting that she “has been making vital, inventive music” throughout the course of her decades-long career.
Tickets – £35.50, £40.50, £52.50. All tickets include a £3.00 booking fee.
