?The Matchsellers! The Matchsellers are a high-stakes, rollicking, American Stringband that formed in Germany. Over the course of the last decade, the Matchsellers have proven themselves to be one of the most creative and note-worthy Bluegrass groups to emerge from the Midwest. On their ambitious new record The Wishful Thinker’s Hall of Fame (2022), the group masterfully shows that “art for art’s sake” has a place in the folk multiverse.
The Matchsellers are a rare breed that is truly in it for the sake of the art. In a recent interview frontman Andrew Morris explained, “Sometimes, I feel like music is a kind of disease. It infects you and you can’t get rid of it. I really wish that something else had taken over me. Something where I could make a bit more money. Something that wasn’t so difficult. But I don’t really have a choice. You got to eat what the lunch lady gives you.”
