Justin Currie In Concert @ Lincoln Drill Hall


Justin Currie In Concert @ Lincoln Drill Hall
Saturday 12 May 8pm

The Scottish singer/songwriter, most famous for his role as founder member and front man of Del Amitri, is currently working as a successful solo artist. Justin Currie's music is dominated by strong imagery and storytelling, powerful yet understated vocals and a sound that, whilst firmly rooted in nineties pop-rock, translates beautifully into modern, urban ballads. With influences from Nick Cave, Crowded House and Mark Lanegan, his music is hauntingly dark, yet refreshingly uplifting.

Tickets: £20 in advance (£22 on the day)

Great Music @ Lincoln Drill Hall This Weekend


Don’t plan anything for this weekend until you have checked what’s on at Lincoln Drill Hall!
On Friday evening at 8 pm NewJazz 5 present the Dennis Rollins ‘Velocity’ Trio

Generally acknowledged as the most exciting, entertaining and talented trombonist in Britain today, Dennis honed his skills with the National Youth Jazz Orchestras before joining Courtney Pine’s pioneering ‘Jazz Warriors’. The ‘Velocity’ Trio places Dennis alongside the funky drumming of Pedro Segundo and the groovy organ of Ross Stanley. A very cool evening! Tickets £14 (£12 concessions / £8 students)

On Saturday at 8pm the Drill Hall present Kieran Goss

Last seen on the Drill Hall stage in February when he supported Fairport Convention, Kieran Goss has long been hailed as one of Ireland's leading songwriters and performers. But if his songs have made him a star, his live shows have made him a legend. Live on stage is where Kieran Goss really shines. “The sense of fun is tremendous, the playing first rate and the songs are sheer quality. The encores were genuine, but only because the man is too.” The Irish Times Tickets: £12 in advance (£14 on the day)

And there’s more...
There are free music sessions in the Drill Hall Cafe/Bar.
On Friday from 12.00 Midday 'til 2.00 pm it’s Free Music Friday with Keith Luckey and on Saturday from 12.00 Midday 'til 2.00 pm The Saturday Session with Double Take.

Was This The Best Drill Hall Gig Ever?


Was This The Best Drill Hall Gig Ever?
Wilco Johnson supported by Virgil and the Accelerators April 21 Lincoln Drill Hall.
What a night we had at the Drill Hall. Wilco Johnson with sidemen, Norman Watt-Roy (bass) and Dylan Howe (Drums) all on sparkling form. The sound mix was spot on and the lighting was just what you’ve come to expect at this venue.

The show kicked off the show with a storming set by power rockers Virgil and the Accelerators.
Wilco Johnson stormed through a set including favourites such as Down By The Jetty, Roxette, Sneaking Suspicion and Sam The Sham’s Wooly Bully. There were two encores, firstly an extended version of Chuck Berry’s Bye Bye Johnny and finally Rote Sixty Six.

Could this have been the best Drill Hall Gig Ever?

Wilko Johnson
Supported by Virgil & the Accelerators                                                                                               Wilko first made a name for himself when he formed Dr. Feelgood in 1971.

By the time Dr. Feelgood released their fourth album, Sneakin' Suspicion, Johnson had left the group to pursue a solo career, later joining Ian Dury and the Blockheads.
One of music’s true characters, Wilko recently featured in Julien Temple's Oil City Confidential, a full-length feature film documentary about Dr. Feelgood, and has also been seen starring opposite Sean Bean in HBO's fantasy series Game of Thrones.

Friday 15 June 8pm
New Jazz 5 presents
JTQ – The James Taylor Quartet + Gareth Lockrane
JTQ make a triumphant return to Lincoln following their previous sell-out gigs at the Drill Hall. The bands Hammond organ driven blend of jazz, funk, R&B and swinging beats make them one of the most distinctive and important crossover acts in British live musical history. From their fired-up signature tune ‘The Theme from Starsky and Hutch’  through their many covers of 60s film themes such as ‘Alfie’, ‘Mrs. Robinson’, ‘Blow Up’, and ‘Goldfinger’  to scoring the theme tune to ‘Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery’,  they constantly produce swinging, high energy live shows that are not to be missed.
Tonight the quartet becomes a quintet as with award winning flautist Gareth Lockrane adding another flavour to the mix. Tickets: £16 (£14 concessions / £8 students)

Saturday 16 June 8pm
The Imagined Village
We are absolutely thrilled to be hosting one of the UK’s most exciting bands, for what promises to be a wonderful gig. Their powerful music is inspired by Britain’s diverse cultural heritage and the ten members of the Imagined Village including Eliza Carthy, Martin Carthy, Jackie Oates and Barney Morse Brown are all giants in their fields, playing in other such as Chase & Status, Afro Celts Sound System, Cornershop, Transglobal Underground, The Bays, Dhol Foundation and Red Snapper… Some of the star Villagers will support themselves in duos and as soloists before the main event.  
A joyous celebration of English & global culture’ The Times
Please note this is a standing gig. Tickets: £17.50 in advance (£20 on the day)

Wednesday 11 July 8pm in the Room Upstairs
Pennyless
Join one of our most popular Saturday Session bands in our Room Upstairs as they perform a lively acoustic set of sparkling melodies and tunes from Ireland, Scotland, England and America on flute, fiddle and guitar with additional whistle, melodica and motley percussion. Self-penned songs in three part harmony give a glimpse into the very English world of Pennyless who love poetry, trees, birds nests and the moon. Tickets: £5

Friday 13 July 7.30pm
Jazzpac & FLINSO
Jazz Vehicle Youth Jazz Orchestra & Tomorrow’s Warriors Biggish Band
& Lincolnshire school children
Jazz Vehicle is without a doubt one Lincolnshire’s finest musical exports, winning the top award at the National Festival of Music for Youth finals in 2008 and 2010, followed on each occasion, by being invited to perform at the Royal Albert Hall. Tonight as well as hearing this incredible group of young musicians, there’ll be music from Tomorrow’s Warriors Biggish Band and the chance to hear primary school children performing music they’ve been working on with Dune mentors, saxophonist Denys Baptiste and pianist Peter Edwards
Tickets: £10 (£8 concessions / students and accompanied children free)

 Friday 20 July 8pm
Limehouse Lizzy
Renowned for an action-packed, pyrotechnic-fuelled explosion of a show, Limehouse Lizzy continue to keep the spirit of rock icon Philip Lynott and his band Thin Lizzy alive and well. The set will of course include both Celtic influenced tracks like ”Whisky in the Jar” and “Black Rose” alongside the classic “The Boys are Back in Town” and “Sarah” plus a tribute to Gary Moore who sadly passed away last year. 
Limehouse Lizzy's Wayne Ellis is an uncanny ringer for Phil Lynott...’ The Guardian
If you're sceptical about tribute acts, you won't be after seeing Limehouse Lizzy’  Radio Times

Tickets: £14 in advance (£16 on the day). Please note this is a standing gig

Saturday 21 July 8pm – midnight
Back to the Future: Global Party
