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 Steve Tilston, Rod Clements, Vin Garbutt and Katriona Gilmore and Jamie Roberts.  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. is our 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!

The Event in Westgate Junior School this year is a Grand Ceildh on Friday 27 April and run not by us but by the excellent Liam Robinson.  On Saturday 28 April at the school Liam, with the well known Pete Coe, presents a set of workshops.  The set comprises workshops on playing for dancing and calling for dancing.  The Event then continues with us presenting a concert at 8.00pm on Saturday 28 April, not in the schoool hall but in the Cellar and features Pete Coe with Liam Robinson as support.
