Irish Folk and Culture Brunch with The Neckbellies in Bielefeld
On Sunday, October 25, 2026, the Culture Brunch at Neue Schmiede Bielefeld combines a diverse brunch buffet with handcrafted live music. The Neckbellies will bring Irish Folk, Scottish Folk, Celtic melodies, and selected rock and pop songs to the stage starting at 11:00 AM.
Acoustic Folk with a Rough Voice and Lively Accordion
Behind The Neckbellies are Eddie Arndt and Thomas Hecking, two musicians who have been active in the regional folk scene for many years and have been performing together for over twelve years. Arndt's distinctive, powerful singing and his rhythmic guitar playing form the sonic foundation. Thomas Hecking adds expressive accordion playing, inspired by Irish Folk and Cajun music, with vibrant accents.
Jigs, Reels, and Celtic Sounds
The repertoire ranges from traditional Irish jigs and reels to Celtic songs and well-known songs from rock and pop. The reduced lineup creates a direct, warm sound: guitar, accordion, vocals, and the palpable synchronization of two long-time stage partners ensure an immediate live atmosphere.
Handcrafted Music with Surprising Instruments
The Neckbellies stand for an energetic stage performance with minimal distance to the audience. Besides guitar and accordion, unusual and partially self-built instruments are used. This creates a varied concert experience that combines traditional folk structures with joy of playing, humor, and modern influences.
Culture Brunch at Neue Schmiede
The musical morning takes place at the Freizeit- und Kulturzentrum Neue Schmiede in the Bielefeld district of Gadderbaum. The admission includes the brunch buffet, drinks, and music. The event starts at 11:00 AM and runs until 2:00 PM. Pre-registration is required; ticket sales take place directly at Neue Schmiede.
Conclusion: Folk Experience with Enjoyment and Joy of Play
Visitors can expect a sociable Sunday morning with Celtic melodies, driving reels, rough singing, and a rich brunch. Anyone wanting to experience The Neckbellies live and enjoy acoustic folk in a personal atmosphere should save the date for the Culture Brunch on October 25, 2026.
