Sidney & Matilda Presents: 
An Evening with John Cambridge Hosted by Garry Burnett
Talks, Stories, and Q&A with David Bowie's original drummer
Evening with John Cambridge





Bowie, Cambo & All the Hype traces the extraordinary and pivotal friendship between
David Bowie and drummer John Cambridge, from the time when Bowie made his first major
career breakthrough in 1969 to his death from cancer in 2016.
Drummer, musician and friend John ‘Cambo’ Cambridge lived with Bowie at Haddon Hall
when he had his first hit record ‘Space Oddity’ and toured with him in Junior’s Eyes. He was
there for him at many key moments – when Bowie lost his father, passed his driving test,
played his first Glam Rock gig with Hype, even acting as best man when Bowie married
Angela Barnett in 1970.
And if John had not persuaded his former Rats colleague and friend Mick Ronson to join
Bowie in February 1970, there might never have been a Ziggy Stardust or the stellar career
which followed.
At this special evening with John Cambridge, the author of Bowie, Cambo & All The Hype,
we get a backstage pass to key people and events during those crucial early years and will
hear, up close and in person, the heartfelt stories of this unique friendship.
