Festival news
You may have noticed this site is now titled Lincoln's Folk in the Cellar rather than Lincoln Folk Festival.
Due to lack of funding there won't be a Folk Festival this year, and Marianne and Andy are concentrating on the regular concerts.
See the Upcoming Events section on the right for what's to come.

Lincoln Folk in the Cellar Plus One now replaces Lincoln Folk Festival with nearly once a month concerts in the Cellar(!) and one Event in theschool hall of Westgate Junior School Lincoln. (One minute from the Lawns in Union Road).
All concerts feature professional artists such as Phil Beer, Clive Carroll, Jez Lowe and Bob Fox. Every concert starts with a semi-pro localish artist, such as Brian Dawson. A real mix of old and new, a little traditional but much of every other folk tradition. for your musical delight. This is reflected in the audience which does not present the usual universal sea of grey heads, but includes a goodly sprinkling of young tonsures. Old friends please us by their presence when we have been able to please them, but there are always new comers dropping in when they visit the city or travelling some distance for a favourite artist. Be assured of a welcome!
AND NOW SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR 2013!
In addition to the concerts, when John Kirkpatrick is in town, on the 13th of April 2013, there will be two workshops. One will be on the melodeon in traditional music & the other on Singing Traditional Songs. These workshops are run in conjunction with Liam Robinson &tickets will cost £4. The workshops will last for approximately 75 minutes each.
They will happpen at the Quaker meeting House at Beaumont Fee Lincoln. Interested? Watch this space for details of times. You can buy the tickets from us as usual.
