introducing

 Herbert Manning

writer, producer & performer

of 

The Lincoln Experience

​

I was born in the Autumn of 1947

on the Portobello Rd , West London. 

attic floor of a Victorian Town House Bordello

 

My mother being a Lady of the night

vaguely believes my father to be a German cobbler working in the area around about that time

 

I grew up in 1950's Soho of London, roaming the opium fuelled jazz clubs , gaining a sleepy conscious to mayhem & constraint

in the fractions of impulsive expressionism

 

Cleaning up during the 70's

on the lazy love yearnings of the disco Era

 with  hippy hipsters flaring freedom In a Zeppelin joint

near had me a nervous breakdown

​

through the 80's & after too much

electro powdered power,

I Skipped halfway across the world

loosing myself to psychedelia

and an Indian peace movement

where I found Buddha

​

Now very much the calmer Twilight

 I have a silver lining.

 this silver lining is my time to experience

tenacity & faith in its purest

​

Hence the birth of The Lincoln Experience 

​

This one man band writes , sings , produces

Mix , Masters & Edits

all that is 

THE LINCOLN EXPERIENCE

​

HERb is the soul contributor

creator & acting illuminaire

 of The Lincoln Experience

​

With no definitive genre

and over 200 tracks in his locker,

the journey has only just begun...

​

 thank you

and with humble salutations
