The Check-in
Cost: Free
Platform: iOS, Android
Sounds like: In Hearts Wake, The Acacia Strain
The local group from Forest Hill started out as nothing more than a group
of high school mates jamming in a shed in the middle of nowhere. Since
then, the band has grown into something bigger than what they could
ever imagine. With many gigs under their belt and many demos of their
grungy, heavy sound, it’s easy to see why. Be sure to check them out as
many of their shows are all ages and free entry.
Make sure you follow them on Facebook for any upcoming gigs as well as
subbing to them on YouTube to hear their new music as it comes out.
