Having most recently supported AC/DC, toured Japan with The Hives, shared tour buses with Muse, and opened for Oasis, New Zealand quintet, The Checks are on the cusp of releasing their sophomore release, Alice By The Moon. Embodying a dynamic psychedelic rock element, alluding to the likes of Kings of Leon and The White Stripes, with a twist of heavy soul and unrestrained rhythm sections, it is no surprise that the album soared to number 13 on the NZ Top 40 Album Charts.
