Working with Ed has always been an immense source of joy for us all and we are devastated by his loss.

Tragically in October this year he discovered that the cancer had come back. We are unbelievably sad to have to tell you all that Ed passed away on Christmas Eve surrounded by his family. All our love goes out to his wife Cathryn and his two wonderful children James and Beth.

Thankfully his chemo went very well, and with
characteristic strength and determination he went ahead with the Bellowhead tour. As far as anyone knew, he was fully recovered.

Those of you who came along to the 2024 Bellowhead tour will remember our wonderful helicon player and dear friend Ed Neuhauser taking centre stage for the introduction to Fire Marengo.
What you wouldn't have realised is that Ed had been diagnosed with a brain tumour twelve months previously.

Bellowhead is the most magical thing. It’s always like returning home 🥲 it’s playing the music I adore with my second family. Thank you Bellowhead. You’re all stunning and I love you.

Now to wash my rank smelly clothes, rest my achey legs and sleep for a few weeks.

See you all soon 😘

That’s the Bellowhead tour finished. Hard to sum it up but firstly THANK YOU if you came along to party with us. It was the happiest tour I can remember doing.

The audiences (32,000+ of you) were so great and our crew were beyond brilliant. They work unbelievably hard to make the show what it is.

As a result of the Bodleian Folk archives being no longer available from today, I'd like to try to get an idea of how many of us use it, how, and how often. It's such a vital resource for so many of us. I've set up an email at [email protected] for this so please do feed back

I don't say very much on here, but I just have to say that the Bellowhead concert in Manchester tonight was outstanding!
