Hi, and welcome to the latest Lincolnshire Arts and Music Bulletin podcast. 

This time, we’ve gone with a Folk theme, although as per our statement of genre fluidity, we’ve managed to mix several interpretations of Folk.


David Johnson is a singer based in Seattle. His recent album, a tribute to Joni Mitchell, is on this Podcast because his Producer, Fake Zappa, aka Jason T Ingram, is a big fan of Lincolnshire Arts and Music, of our NHS, a Champion for Mental Health and a disciple of Robert Wyatt.

Jack in the Green is a folk band which included well known Lincolnshire musician, MelO.

Kieran Campbell is a local musician who treks between Punk and Folk and has managed to weld the two together into a unique mix. 

Robert Brooker is someone who I hadn’t heard of or seen since we were at school together in Louth in the mid 60’s. So it was great to catch up with him and appreciate his musical talent. 

Nicky Haxby is a Busker/Singer/Songwriter from Louth. Her track, In another Lifetime, is her offering for this show.

Robert Oldfield from Lincoln, has an extensive catalogue and I’ve selected the following tracks for inclusion. The 2nd track reflects his passion for Sheffield United Football Club, and I, being an Arsenal supporter, was torn between my passion for my club, and Robert’s for his music. (He’ll understand).

The O’Claire’s have never recorded in a studio, but the following “live” offering closes our show today. 

TRACK LIST:

David Johnson - Both sides now
