Black Sabbath Tribute and Checaine Tour

To celebrate their forthcoming EP "Black River", Checaine is throwing a huge party at the Boiler Room in Whakatane.

Checaine has invited their friends, After Forever - NZ's premiere Black Sabbath Tribute, to join the party.

CHECAINE is a high-energy, hard rock band that prides themselves on world-class songwriting, powerful vocal hooks, and a rhythm section second to none. They have been at the forefront of Australasian rock for over a decade and have released several EPs, an album, and a dozen music videos.

CHECAINE have routinely had their singles played on BAYROCK, GENERATOR FM, KAOS Fm, and the national rock station THE ROCK FM. CHECAINE won the most voted NZ rock band in BAYROCK's "May NZ Music month band vote off competition" in 2021.

Having shared the stage with the likes of DEVILSKIN, IAMGIANT, and FOZZY; as well as headlining countless shows and tours of their own, CHECAINE is widely accepted as one of New Zealand's finest live exports.

The band is currently releasing new material via Cartel Records with the new EP "Black River" scheduled for release on March 25.

Never short of catchy choruses and tight musicianship, CHECAINE is one act to look out for...Sharing the stage with the likes of SUPERHEIST would make for an excellent gig, promoters reading take note. - MATT BOLTON (HEAVYMAG.COM.AU)

"When a band realises their potential and gives everything they have got, you end up with a band like Checaine who have the power to captivate and make you reach for that repeat button just one more time. This is not just an EP you want, it’s a necessity."- KERRY MONAGHAN (NZMUZIC)
