Friday 1st May 2026:
Open Stage with special guest
Miguel Zambujeira
At the Golden Hind, 355 Milton Road, Cambridge CB4 1SP
8pm (Doors open 7:30pm)
Entry: £6(door), £5(advance), £4(members & performers).
Miguel Zambujeira is a Portuguese-born, UK-based singer-songwriter creating emotionally driven, melody-focused music that blends folk, indie and alternative influences. Based in Cambridgeshire, his work combines introspective songwriting, atmospheric textures and honest lyrical storytelling, drawing inspiration from artists such as Phoebe Bridgers, Lizzy McAlpine, Bon Iver and Ben Howard, alongside the wider influence of Radiohead, Pink Floyd and Nick Drake.
He has performed widely across Cambridge and London, appearing at established grassroots venues and showcase nights, and continues to grow his presence on the UK live circuit. He recently performed at the English Folk Expo as part of the Manchester Folk Festival, further establishing his presence within the UK folk and songwriter scene.
His debut EP The Missing Piece introduced his layered melodic style, followed by a run of singles including Scars, Unwritten Skies, Climbing Through Your Window and Closer.
His latest release, the EP Quiet Rooms, expands on this sound through a collection of intimate, reflective songs exploring solitude, memory and emotional space.
Miguel continues to release new material, with further music planned for 2026. His live sets are built for listening rooms, festivals and songwriter showcases, balancing intimacy with dynamic build and audience connection.

Praise for the Folk Club
Lester Lloyd Reason of The Lights made the following comment after they had performed at the Folk Club on 28th March 2025:
" it
"Cambridge Folk Club is an example of what a folk club should look like, and the direction I hope the folk scene continues to go in. With a commitment both to the tradition, and to creating events that welcome everyone. Cambridge Folk Club is a warm, welcoming and safe atmosphere for artists and audiences and a true embodiment of what folk music should be. People coming together, sharing music, laughter and community through song. The team are welcoming, friendly and helpful, the sound is beautiful and the audiences are appreciative."
