Housemaid / Pluk dan / Torrence
SPEELDRANG gives young local creators the opportunity to present new work, perform a try-out show, or perform in front of an audience for the first time. This edition is organized with Femxle Frontier, a collective dedicated to achieving a more equal gender balance in the music industry.
Femxle Frontier hosts triple bill events in Overijssel and Gelderland, among others.
Housemaid
Housemaid is a four-piece indie rock band bursting with raw energy and hypnotic grooves. With a sound that balances between dreamy and confrontational—steeped in shoegaze, krautrock, and post-punk—they effortlessly pull you into their world. Expect sharp observations, vulnerable lyrics, and a healthy dose of feminist power. This isn't background music; it's a frontal assault on apathy that will linger long after the show. Danceable, but with teeth.
Pluk dan
Pluk dan combines existential lyrics and an experimental synth sound into an overwhelming Dutch-language pop act. Every show is an interdisciplinary experiment with music that is both philosophical and danceable, alienating and relatable, guided by the band's motto: ‘Only one day is your last, let that one rot and seize the rest.’
Torrrence
Energy, sensuality, and an escape from overthinking. Torrence grabs the audience with alternative psychedelic rock, instrumental hints of Radiohead, and vocal traits reminiscent of Jeff Buckley, not letting go until the final vibrations of all three guitars have faded.
Stories about eccentric characters and events are told in a way that is both gritty and euphoric. Ringing ears and shaky legs are all that remain. And then? A sweaty craving for more.
