Bombskare and Boogalusa
Number 10 Johnston Street, Dundee, tomorrow
THERE’SA brilliant night in store at Number 10 Johnston Street tomorrow night, with Edinburgh’s nine-piece juggernaut, Bombskare, joining forces with Dundee’s own Boogalusa for a rip-roaring dance-fest.
Bombskare are firmly established as one of the most explosive and entertaining live acts in the country for their trademark high energy shows.
They are masterful musicians and performers. An awesome live band, they steal any show with ease, using breakneck ska rhythms and lush, three-part harmonies with choppy guitar sounds and an explosive horn section to truly blow the audience away.
Incorporating a blend of musical styles with 100-mile-an-hour dance-floor filling crowd pleasers cements Bombskare’s undisputed reputation as one of Scotland’s premier party bands.
All in all Bombskare are a band with their tongue firmly in their cheek. You are guaranteed the most energetic, fun gig you are likely to experience anywhere.
Especially when they’re joined by Dundee’s Cajun kings Boogalusa. Their mix of up-tempo, high-energy, self-penned and classic Cajun/zydeco numbers ensure a hot and sweaty night of dancing, fuelled by lightning-fast fiddle, accordion and guitar licks and underpinned by a superbly-tight, pounding rhythm section.
Alongside Cajun and zydeco, Boogalusa also blend in influences from Irish, Americana, country, swing, rhythm and blues, pop and even have a penchant for dub, reggae and sky.
Rising Dundee four-piece old-school pop rockersTheAlley are also on the bill, bringing their fresh young sound to the stage at Number 10.
Doors open at 8pm and entry costs £5. Bring your dancing shoes.
