Blending elements of hardcore, emo, and indie rock in a melodic cocktail unmatched by scene contemporaries, Atlanta four-piece Microwave balances frankness with a penchant for wit, allowing personal confessions to make a striking impact. While often tipping into the heavier side of resonant punk, the band shines brightest in soft reservation.WEBSITE | INSTAGRAM

Insider Tips:

“One of our favorite local activities is tubing on the Chattahoochee River up by Cumberland Mall. You have to sit somewhere. You might as well sit on a tube in a river!”

“Before leaving Atlanta, definitely go check out Martin Luther King Jr’s house which is now a National Historical Park and offers tours.  Then head over to the nearby Jackson Street Bridge… it’s the most popular spot for getting Atlanta skyline pics too.”

HAMMER’S GOODTIME EMPORIUM

Anything with Silver Tequila at Hammer’s Good Time Emporium. They have a beach sand volleyball court and a sick patio and it’s right next to the runway at the airport so you can check out all the cool planes. It’s also mad cheap and the food is delicious.”
