Tonight it is a return date for Bad Boy Boogie at The Bungalow.

They are a rock cover band from Ayrshire.

The band covers the likes of Guns N’ Roses, Bryan Adams, Led Zeppelin, ZZ Top, Billy Idol, AC/DC and even a bit of rocked up ABBA.

They will be on stage from 9pm and it is free entry.

Tomorrow night the East Kilbrideba­sed ska band Skaledonia will be getting you up on your feet playing classic ska from the likes of The Specials and Bad Manners with a few ska’d up Clash numbers for good measure. They starts at 8pm and it is £3 on the door.

The regular feast of young and up and coming bands continues at The Bungalow on Thursday and this week the venue is delighted to introduce you to Magic Trick with support from Velvetbomb and Ohnova.

Magic Trick have been playing the Scottish gig circuit for the past three years, with their raw blues rock performing alongside the Likes of Altered Sky, Courtesans and Voodoo Blood.

Since being taken under the wing of Reaction Management, they are currently in pre-production, working on a follow-up to their current EP Your Wings To Fly.

The band plans to promote their new music, which promises to be bigger and better than ever, with a series of shows across Scotland and the UK.

Brooding with dark energy, Velvetbomb are a Glasgow twopiece filled with razor edge riffs, pounding drums and cutting vocals creating high-octane hard rock.

Formed in 2017, Ohnova are a Glasgow-based alternativ­e/desert rock band.

A power trio, members Paul Morton (bass/vocals), Matthew Sharp (guitar) and Ciaran Whyte (drums) make music that focuses on big riffs and bigger melodies – the kind of music you can take home to your daddy.

As usual this fantastic evening is free entry and it all starts at 7.30pm.

The band that has gigged the most at Hamishes’ Hoose is back once again to blow the roof off.

Tonight, The Republic of Soul, an eight-piece soul band from Glasgow, will be pounding out music guaranteed to fill any dance floor.

Their set features soul classics from all the greats including Otis Redding, Sam Cooke, Sam and Dave and some more contempora­ry numbers from the likes of Amy Winehouse and Paul Weller.

The big band with the big sound starts at 9pm.
