Gasoline & Matches, a dynamic country duo from Birmingham, UK, have earned their place as one of the finest acts in the country scene, with a reputation for high-energy performances, clever lyrics, and tight harmonies. Described by Alex Noble of BBC Introducing as "one of the finest country acts in not just the West Midlands but the UK," their sound blends sassy, funky country with the melodic guitar licks and heartfelt lyricism that defines their style.
Their debut single, ‘Fool’s Gold’, soared to No. 1 on the UK iTunes Country Chart, marking a significant milestone in their journey. The track's success led to recognition from BBC Introducing's West Midlands Sounds of 2019, further cementing their place in the UK country scene. With a sound that draws influence from artists like Little Big Town, they are known for their playful humor and top-notch musicianship, always delivering performances that leave audiences wanting more.

Their live shows have seen them share the stage with Phil Vassar, Lindsay Ell, Don McLean, Jessie J, Kaiser Chiefs, and many more. Whether playing acoustic sets or rocking out with a full band, their electrifying performances are always a highlight.
As James Daykin of Lyric Magazine puts it, their sound is "sassy, funky, Little Big Town infused country right from the heartland of the UK," and their reputation for sharp, energetic live shows and serious musicality continues to make them a standout in the UK country music scene. Gasoline & Matches are undeniably a duo to watch.
