Gig by harpist and vocalist Esther Swift with Harry Li at Southside, the former church music venue in Lincoln.
Esther Swift plays Southside on Saturday 24 October, with Harry Li opening the night. Swift is a harpist who performs with pedal and voice, and the set is built around rituals and the natural world. It's a double bill, so you'll get two acts for the price of one.
Southside is a not-for-profit grassroots music and cultural venue that opened in 2022 inside a Grade II listed former church at the southern gateway to Lincoln, near South Common. It runs across two halls — the larger St Katherine's Hall and the adjoining Amie Slavin Hall — with two bars and a box office cloakroom. The programming is handled by Acoustic Nations, and the bill has hosted indie band LIFE, blues guitarist Chantel McGregor, folk musician Kris Drever and The Wedding Present's David Gedge. The year-round programme ranges from indie and rock gigs and fortnightly Commuter Jazz to folk and blues nights, tribute shows, comedy, theatre, markets and the annual South of the Tracks Festival.

Swift's work sits on the harp, pedal and voice, and the evening focuses on rituals and nature. Harry Li takes the first slot, so you'll have two performers on the bill. It's a Saturday night in Lincoln, and the venue is just a short walk from South Common.
