Description:
The Milk Parlor presents Bumpin Uglies in concert with opener Space Koi on Thursday, October 3, 2019.

Join Bumpin Uglies on their Lava Sharks and Water Parks Tour.

For nearly a decade now, Bumpin Uglies have been playing their brand of groove-heavy jams, a curiously fun mix of ska, Reggae and good ole’ punk rock, all while putting strong lyrics at the forefront of the music. It’s a formula that quickly took them from local favorites, playing around Annapolis, to a national stage. With a wildly infectious sound, tattoo-worthy lyrics and an itch to take their music to the masses, the band piled into the van years ago and have rarely seen home since.

When they aren’t on the road, they’ve been camped in the studio, churning out four full-length albums, two acoustic albums, three EP’s and a Live record. Their latest, 2018’s Beast From The East came out on Space Duck Records and is proof that the band has found their groove. The album consists of a dozen stand-out tracks, any one of which could be considered instant classics for the band. The album also features some big names in the East Coast reggae-rock community including Ballyhoo!’s Howi Spangler, the Movement’s Gary Dread, Passafire’s Ted Bowne, Tropidelic’s Derek McBryde, Matthew Roads & Young James, Zach Fowler of Sun Dried Vibes and Oogee Wawa’s Jesse Lee.

Raised on everything from Bad Religion and The Beach Boys to Sublime and Reel Big Fish, Bumpin Uglies have managed to take inspiration from some of the best out there, run it through their own distinctive filter and end up with a truly original take on the various genres creating an original hybrid. With a unique sound that’s nearly impossible to ignore, the band has gotten everyone from dreadlocked kids to PBR-fueled tattooed punks moving their heads to their music at festivals and on headlining tours across the country.

Space Koi is a pleasantly diverse blend of reggae and blues-infused psychedelia based in Richmond, VA.

Space Koi blends a unique list of influences to create their sound. From the classic reggae sounds of Toots and the Maytals to the explosive solos of bluesmen like BB King, from the soulful horn of JR Walker and the All Stars to the frenetic pace of Django Reinhardt, the guys have melded these influences into one power packed group sure to keep a crowd moving.
