The List

The Bungalow

The Bungalow is an independent and ethical live music venue nestled within the heart of Paisley Town Centre (Central Scotland). We are well known for our relaxed atmosphere and laid-back attitudes, not to mention having the friendliest team of staff (we feel) on the planet! The Bungalow legacy began in the late seventies on Renfrew Road (the original premises) with artists such as; The Fall, The Skids, The Tourists, Orange juice, Roddy Frame, Alan McGee, The Buzzcocks, Echo and the Bunnymen, The Alarm, The Jam, The Teardrop Explodes, The Clash and many many more rolled through the doors to perform to a packed Paisley crowd every night! To the disappointment of many, The Bungalow closed its doors in the early eighties. In 2008, The Bungalow revival was born opening up in its current residency of Shuttle Street with a mission to bring the upcoming and the legends into Paisley as the music home of Danny Kyle, Jerry Rafferty, Paolo Nutini, Jukebox and many more with the likes of The Rezillos, The Quireboys, Kyle Falconer, Frightened Rabbit, and The Blockheads already making their way back through our doors and inspiring up and coming bands to fulfill their music talents and dreams (We have a big dream here and everyone is part of that). We do not support any form of Pay to Play or unethical practices within our venue, we aim for; artists, customers and staff alike to be treated with an equal degree of respect and such a practice is unwelcome here. We always aim for gig tickets to be as cheap as possible however, you will probably find most of our events are free! Please come down and support live music within our independent and ethical venue. Please note that we are an 18+ venue. The appropriate ID must be presented when asked for. 16-17-year-olds may attend shows, however, this requires a responsible adult over the age of 21 years old to attend with them.

What's On @ The Bungalow

Definitely Oasis

Definitely Oasis

10 Apr 2026 - 30 Jan 2027

Definitely Oasis are regarded by many promoters and Oasis fans alike as the best one there is. With Oasis currently not together, Definitely Oasis do an amazing job of keeping the music alive and set the bar high by re-creating the look, sound and feel of an Oasis gig. They're also the only Oasis tribute band in the world to have Liam and Noel Gallagher soundalikes that look and sound as close to the real deal as you can get.
The Southmartins

The Southmartins

9 May 2026 - 13 Feb 2027

The Southmartins are a unique tribute to the songs and sound of The Beautiful South & Housemartins. Constantly gigging since early 2010 in the UK they have built up an unbeatable reputation as a live experience. With a set of classic hits and other bits to draw upon such as Song For Whoever, Don't Marry Her, Perfect 10, Happy Hour and many more they are guaranteed to make you smile, dance and sing. Rather than merely trying to recreate or reproduce the original recordings, or even live performances of the original bands, The Southmartins have always put their own stamp on the material and have led the way in how they approach paying tribute to these classic songs. This is not simple mimicry. Having said that, lead singer Andy's voice is about as close to Paul Heaton as you could hope for without it being the man himself (who has said the band are "very good") and with a highly skilled, and lively band they inject a huge amount of energy and soul into their shows.
The Smiths Ltd

The Smiths Ltd

11 Apr 2026 - 22 Jan 2027

The Smiths Ltd was formed in Manchester, UK the hometown of The Smiths. After an extensive search to find the perfect Morrissey, the band played their first gig to an audience of avid Smiths fans. The response was spectacular and the band now plays at venues and festivals all over the UK. If you never saw The Smiths then this is your chance to experience the thrill of those great songs played live. If you were lucky enough to see them first time around then prepare to relive that excitement again. Committed to getting the same energy that Morrissey, Johnny Marr, Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce had onstage together, the band are also obsessed about getting that live sound just right. With an authenticity and provenance that’s hard to beat The Smiths Ltd are the ultimate tribute. The Smiths meant everything to a generation… To us they still do.
STIPE - The Best of REM Live At The Bungalow
Stipe are recognised as the definitive tribute to R.E.M., the band from Athens, Georgia who are widely credited as pioneers of alternative rock, influencing countless bands who would follow, including Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Radiohead. R.E.M remain a model for young musicians everywhere: a band who always did things on their own terms, a band committed to doing the right thing for each other (such as splitting royalties equally), and never compromising on their artistic independence. They called it a day, on their own terms, in 2011, and have repeatedly ruled out ever reuniting. Having played to tens of thousands of people all over the UK and Europe, and not least to Michael Stipe himself on the 'One Show' (Michael described them as 'awesome'), Stipe are a professional six-piece, who, as huge fans of the band, take the music (if not themselves) seriously. Iconic songs such as 'Losing My Religion' and 'Everybody Hurts' are recreated note-for-note, while Richard Southern's studied vocal pays homage to Michael Stipe's unique voice and enigmatic performance style. While all shows feature the familiar hits, every setlist is different. Deeper cuts from R.E.M.'s peerless back-catalogue, such as 'Talk About The Passion' or 'Don't' Go Back To Rockville' will delight fans of the band, and is an opportunity for any fan of great music to hear this timeless material played live with love and care. Whether you're a long-time or more casual fan, or just someone who loves great music, Stipe are a must-see tribute band who capture the essence of R.E.M., one of the defining bands of our times.
