About us

We are
Damian Woodings - Sound and lighting, publicity and guidance!
Andy Watkins - Booking, Finance and top man
Marianne Watkins - Cakes and publicity
Dick Morris - Steward and mover
Jane Morris - Steward and patient seller of books (We have a book stall at our big concert)

From time to time various other people come and help us. For example Colin Holland of Lincoln Folk Club, is running our bar at our big concert this year.

Mission Statement
We are a concert club. Our delight is to bring folk and blues artist of the highest national and international reputation to Lincoln. Sometimes we put on artists that you want and we don't really! but generally we put on artists we think are fantastic and we thoroughly enjoy the whole thing!

Any profit we ever make is rapidly swallowed by publicity or the gigs which don't 'go' very well. So we are very much a non profit making organisation who do this because we are slightly mad and love folk and blues music. Sometimes we get funding from the City, but that seems to have dried up now. The county Council are hopefully providing some funding for the Big Concert.

Support Artists. These are all semi-pro and of the highest standard.


What do you want?


Please let us know if you have any wishes regarding artists. We would love to do bands, but we can only manage that once a year in our big concert.

Venues are a thorny problem. The perfect one hasn't yet been invented but we keep on trying. We won't pretend the UNISON club is perfect, BUT it has got lots of pluses and we really like the way that you can get close to the artist and Liz the manager is really helpful and keeps it clean.
