Witaj Eindhoven – Jarmark

JamCrew is a group of Polish musicians living in the Netherlands, brought together by a shared love for live music. We organize open jam sessions and karaoke nights where everyone’s welcome. We play covers of Polish rock and recently began working on our own original songs. For the second year, we’re proud to join Witaj Eindhoven!, bringing good energy, strong community spirit, and music that connects. Whether you want to sing, play, or just enjoy the vibe — JamCrew invites you to be part of something real.

The Polish song and dance group Syrena from Brunssum was founded in 1957, emerging from the community of Polish emigrants who came to work in the coal mines around Heerlen (South Limburg) in the early 20th century. Even today, a large part of the group consists of children from the 3rd, 4th, and 5th generations of these emigrants. Syrena offers a dazzling and colourful introduction to Polish folklore. Dressed in beautiful, authentic costumes from various regions of Poland, the group presents a feast for the eyes and ears. Thanks to the wide variety of traditional clothing, dance styles, and music, their performance remains captivating from start to finish. The group is led by Yvonne Rodenburg-Cierniak, who, together with Stefan Cierniak and Dariusz Rodenburg, provides artistic direction. Yvonne received her training in Poland itself.

Kapela Banachy is a folk band from Heerlen. We mainly play traditional music from the northern part of the Carpathians, particularly from southern Poland, Slovakia, and Hungary. Our repertoire includes lively, high-energy polkas as well as melancholic, virtuosic czardas tunes. What matters most to us is the joy we feel when playing this music and that joy is clearly visible on stage! From time to time, we’re joined by family and friends during our performances for a little extra support.
