The Battle of the Bands Breda! This annual spectacle brings together the best local and regional rock bands for an evening filled with raw energy, powerful riffs, and unfiltered passion for music. Café Lievense provides the perfect setting for this battleground, where bands not only compete against each other but primarily aim to blow the audience away.
The format is simple: various bands compete in preliminary rounds for a spot in the final, where the crème de la crème gathers for an epic showdown. The winner is rewarded not only with eternal fame but also with fantastic gigs, such as a spot at the iconic Brand Parkies festival.
Round 4: ALLUS vs Platonic Smile vs Keuzestress
Ask anyone who has seen
ALLUS live for their opinion and they will unanimously agree: this is the festival act of the 2020s.
From the football field to the studio, from the racing bike to the strings, and from mum’s attic room to the big stages. ALLUS captures the hearts of everyone who hears and sees them.
With sharp personal lyrics, virtuosic melodies, and above all unforgettable energetic live shows, the six gentlemen have already snuck into the hearts of many. Young, old, men and women or anything that lies within and outside of that: ALLUS has something for everyone. Hailing from their hometown of Groet, they have already won over the Alkmaar region, and now the rest of the Netherlands lies at their feet.
Passion, diversity but above all fun are the main pillars of the friendly team ALLUS. Expect to dance, jump, and perhaps shed a tear as a variety of music genres take centre stage. With ALLUS, you'll never be bored…
Platonic Smile feels like the soundtrack of unfiltered late-night tirades and the comforting feeling that someone truly understands you. With honest lyrics and a sound that hovers between quirky indie pop and raw, guitar-driven alt-rock, they create an atmosphere that is both carefree and purifying.
Keuzestress, a brand new band from the last year of Rock City Institute. Keuzestress has big plans to conquer the country with their catchy songs, which tackle the daily stumbling blocks in life, wrapped in a cheerful ska/reggae style. Catch them before they start selling out stadiums!
