Dutch art-rock outfit De Staat will bring their signature fusion of angular riffs and propulsive grooves to Thekla’s unique ship-turned-venue on Monday 9 November 2026. Drawing on a catalogue that spans two decades, the setlist weaves tight, syncopated rhythms with frontman Torre Florim’s commanding baritone, shifting seamlessly between taut, danceable passages and sprawling, atmospheric soundscapes. The venue’s low ceilings and exposed steel beams amplify every percussive hit, enveloping the crowd in a dense wall of noise. As the boat’s hull vibrates in time with the bass, a subtle, restless energy infuses the performance, heightening the sense of intimacy. Tickets are priced at £26.31, with doors opening at 7pm.
Doors open at 19:00 and the performance begins shortly after. Thekla’s intimate, ship-borne setting shapes the sound, with low ceilings and exposed steel amplifying the band’s dense, percussive textures. The set draws from two decades of material, blending angular riffs, propulsive grooves and frontman Torre Florim’s commanding baritone across taut, danceable passages and sprawling, atmospheric soundscapes.

🎤 Performer
De Staat is a Dutch alternative rock band from Nijmegen, The Netherlands, formed in 2006. The band, fronted by songwriter, singer, guitarist and producer, Torre Florim, released four albums: Waiting For Evolution (2009), Machinery (2011), I_Con (2013) and O (2016). De Staat have been described by SonicAbuse as "genre-hopping Gremlins of the first order, who take in the eclectic, grand slamming funk of Beck, the dance grooves of Kelis’ Milkshake, the horny soul of QOTSA (.
