They are back and this gig is not to be missed! A band that brings together the music of two contemporary rock giants are playing at The Bungalow on Friday night, 20 June.
Them & Us is a stunning 9-piece ensemble, lovingly recreating the legendary music of Pink Floyd and Fleetwood Mac. You can get tickets on the door from 7.00pm.
If you are a lover of Big Band, Jazz or Swing then get to The Bungalow on Saturday afternoon, 21 June, and sit back to enjoy The Bobby Deans Big Band fronted by the very cool King of Smooth, John Griffin. It is a free entry gig and doors are 1.00pm.
Formed in 2004 in Glasgow, Spiders on Mars is a six-piece band of musicians who are bonded by a love for the music of the 20th Century’s greatest musical icon. They play music from every era of David Bowie’s career. From The Man Who Sold the World and Space Oddity through the Ziggy years and onto The Thin White Duke. From the blue-eyed soul of Young Americans to the New Wave defining Ashes to Ashes. From the anthemic Heroes to the disco-funk of Let’s Dance. With over 40 classic hits and fan favourites to draw upon as well as special “full album” performances, Spiders on Mars are not a tribute band, Spiders on Mars are a rocking tribute to the music of David Bowie! You can get tickets on the door night from 7.00pm.
