Bruce Soord

As the driving force behind The Pineapple Thief, Bruce Soord has long been a familiar presence on the stage of the Boerderij. Now he returns in a more intimate and personal setting. In support of his upcoming solo album, Bruce presents a special duo show with his longtime musical partner Jon Sykes (bassist of The Pineapple Thief). In this stripped-down format, the essence of the music takes center stage: refined songs, subtle guitar work, rich dynamics, and the unmistakable melodic depth that has defined his work for years.

For everyone who has followed The Pineapple Thief’s musical journey, this concert offers a unique chance to experience the songs from a different perspective. Expect new solo material alongside carefully reimagined compositions that sound even more intense and layered in this atmospheric duo setting. An evening of immersive, sophisticated progressive music — intimate, personal, and performed with full attention to detail.
British songwriter, singer, and producer Bruce Soord founded The Pineapple Thief in 1999, establishing an international reputation within progressive rock. Alongside the band, he has developed a solo career with albums such as Bruce Soord, All This Will Be Yours, and Luminescence, showcasing a more introspective, acoustic-oriented side of his songwriting.
