Bumpin Uglies in Santa Ana

Bumpin Uglies are an American reggae-rock and ska-punk band formed in Annapolis, Maryland, in 2008 by singer-songwriter Brandon Hardesty. Their catalog pairs offbeat rhythms and punk energy with candid, often humorous lyrics; “Island Time,” “Bad Decisions” and “Morning After” are among their best-known songs, while Keep It Together and Beast from the East are key albums. Bumpin Uglies established the recurring Weekend at Wolfie’s festival in Bedford, Pennsylvania, as a focal point for their live community. Beyond that event, the band has toured the U.S. club circuit and performed at reggae-rock gatherings including California Roots in Monterey.
