The Luka State

In the organizer's words:

The Luka State

GOING THE DISTANCE UK/EU TOUR

Admission: 19:00
Start: 20:00

A four-piece band from the UK that impresses with energetic rock that doesn't close its eyes to genre extensions, but at the same time manages to deliver rock'n'roll that is picture-book in the best sense of the word - no, we're not talking about the Rolling Stones or Muse. Even if The Luka State are clearly inspired by the latter, as the quartet's latest album, "More Than This", suggests in many places. The group formed back in 2013 in Winsford, near Manchester. For a long time, Conrad, Sam, Jake and Lewis flew under the radar with their dark interpretation of the genre, which changed abruptly in 2020 when they signed their first major deal. Just one year later, The Luka State released their acclaimed debut album "Fall In Fall Out", which was a ray of hope in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic with its catchy choruses and fat riffs. The record impresses with its big, epic stadium moments as well as more dazzling indie rock passages and integrates elements of indie, alternative and punk into its brute arrangements. Two years later, "More Than This" was released, the second and latest album, which even adds a small portion of heaviness. Singer Conrad Ellis, for whom his own music often has a therapeutic effect, as he says himself, sings about mental health, love relationships and the often frustrating social conditions in our world in the twelve songs it contains. "An album is the embodiment of a band's dreams, hopes and aspirations," write The Luka State via social media. "'More Than This' is not just about wanting more for the people who need it most. It's also about growing as people and musicians." The four Brits will soon be presenting the result of their own growth process on their "Going The Distance" tour, with which The Luka State will also be visiting Germany for four dates this fall.
