VENUES across Oxford came to life on Saturday as live music took the city’s Oxjam musical fundraiser by storm.

The event, organised to raise money for Oxfam, saw more than 40 acts appear at seven venues.

Among the performers was Bicester-based band The Method, who played a set in the Turl Street Kitchen restaurant in the evening.

Band member Dean Adams, 25, said the event had been a success.

He said: “There was a great atmosphere. It went really well.

“We went to the New Road Baptist Church afterwards and watched a few other bands, they were really good.”
