The groups won a Battle of the Bands competition to be part of the bill at Breakout On The Prom in Kirkcaldy which was due to run from Friday to Sunday.

But, last week, organisers pulled the plug because of low ticket sales.

Sharing the stage will be competition winners Passing Sages and Mosaics, with an opening set from Kellie Woods, and all proceeds will benefit NHS charities.

John Murray, chair of the Kings Theatre Kirkcaldy said: “ We were all so looking forward to the big festival, and quickly thought of a way to reach out to at least some of the local talent with a free offer of our venue.

“The Passing Sages have had great shows here before, and Mosaics will be launching their new single Can't See You Tonight.''

Tickets are £7, doors 7:00pm with the gig at 8:00pm
