Two-time British CMA ‘Duo of the Year’ and Birmingham Music Awards ‘Best Folk/Country Act’ Gasoline & Matches are a high-energy, guitar-driven duo, hailing from Birmingham. With cleverly constructed lyrics, close harmonies and melodic guitar licks, they are known for delivering sharp, energetic performances with playful humour and serious musicianship. Their debut single ‘Fool’s Gold’ reached No.1 in the UK iTunes Country Chart, gaining momentum when named amongst BBC Introducing's West Midlands Sounds of 2019.
Touring the UK and transatlantic performances from LA to Nashville attracted international recognition landing several major global brand endorsements. Touring extensively with a host of international artists and UK country music alumni has found the duo sharing the stage with Nashville legend Phil Vassar, main stage appearances ahead of Lindsay Ell, Don McLean, Jessie J & Kaiser Chiefs, and transatlantic performances in Los Angeles & Nashville. Whether performing acoustically or with the full band, their live show is not to be missed.
