Sink With Me is a local band from the Okemos, Michigan area. Taking a one-year hiatus after touring with bands such as The Deer Hunter, The Junior Varsity, Every Bridge Burned and See You Next Tuesday, the band booked a show to play with Moving Mountains at Mac’s Bar in East Lansing on September 9th. Though Moving Mountains ended up having to cancel, Sink With Me was bumped up to headliner and the show went on.
Below is a [very crappy, poor quality Blackberry] video of part of their performance.
