Two icons. Two stories. One culture.
We’re proud to welcome Eddie Piller and Dean Orton for a special afternoon of readings and conversation during the Cologne Soul Weekender 2026.
A deep dive into the spirit that connects Mods, Northern Soul, Jazz, Scooterboys, and the timeless love for style and sound.
📖 Eddie Piller – Clean Living Under Difficult Circumstances
Founder of Acid Jazz Records, broadcaster, DJ, and cultural historian, Eddie takes us through a lifetime immersed in British subculture — from Mod revival and 80s Soho to the ongoing rhythm of modernist life.
📖 Dean Orton – A Life in Lambretta
A true craftsman and storyteller, Dean has dedicated his life to restoring and celebrating the legendary Lambretta. His book is a love letter to scooter culture, design, and the freedom of the open road — with plenty of soul in every page.
💡 During the reading, a collection will be taken, and 10% of the entrance fees will be donated to the association Um halb an der Bar.
📚 Signed copies of both books will be available for purchase on site.
📢 Please note: The readings will be conducted exclusively in English.
