The Matchsellers

Clever and fearless, The Matchsellers boldly go where Bluegrass has previously feared to tread. Core members Andrew Morris and Julie Bates have been polishing their sound for over 10 years. Joined now by Brian McCarty and Brandon Day, this four piece skips across genres with humor, top-notch flat picking and dash of Vaudeville. From rollicking to woeful, The Matchsellers examine life with a unique lens. Hailing from the heartland of America, they infuse traditional roots with a modern, irreverent twist and call it Kansas City Bluegrass. Their songs are a rich tapestry of storytelling, humor, and raw emotion, offering a fresh take on timeless themes.

The Matchsellers have garnered critical acclaim, a dedicated following across the country, and are set to deliver a performance that’s as unforgettable as it is groundbreaking. Get ready to experience the future of folk with the Matchsellers at the Folky Fish Fest ‘24.
