The four-piece cover band has a combined performance history of more than 70 years.
During the past decades, its members have supported acts such as Tommy Emmanuel, The Screaming Jets, Angry Anderson, The Angels and Hoodoo Gurus.
The band is often travelling across Tasmania and has performed at events such as the Carrick Rodeo, V8 Supercars' Longford after-party, Hobart's Xtreme Powerfest car and truck show and more.
It's a life on the road, according to Bucknasty singer-guitarist Brett Collidge.
"Given that we all live on the North-West Coast, it's pretty much inevitable that we end up having to travel a reasonable distance for our gigs," Collidge said.
He said the group's penchant for '80s and '90s pub rock and glam would see tunes from artists such as Guns N' Roses, AC/DC, Warrant and Bon Jovi.
Although its upcoming show will be strictly covers, Collidge said the band was working to release its own original songs.
"We're in the pre- production stages on a few of them at this point," he said.
The show will run from 8.30pm at Longford's Queen's Arms Hotel.
