After almost a decade of playing in many different groups, Matches For Memories have come together as a gang of four distinct personalities. Andrew Clary, April Cowell, Chuck Medlin, & Ryan Sims have emerged to meld together elements of Rock, Punk, Indie, & Pop like no one before. Grinding bass lines, soaring vocals, shining guitars, and basement beats cut out a groove that puts them somewhere beyond normal definition. Based out of Austin, Texas, Matches For Memories have honed their live show in the most versatile of places, the “Live Music Capital of The World”. With inspirations from Rise Against & Foo Fighters to comparisons like U2 & Jimmy Eat World, the group brings raw power, emotion, and musicality, every time they hit the stage. Always pushing to carve out their own niche, they have a way of pulling you in and keeping you just where they want you, always begging for more. With an ever evolving sonic landscape and honest lyrics, this group of musicians continues what they all as individuals started out to do: Make music that matters. That is the broken, beaten, bleeding, & beating heart that is MATCHES FOR MEMORIES.

“Those with broken hearts most honest, live to tell of the long and winding road” -Well & Warm by Matches For Memories

The Firefight EP, the follow-up to 2009’s Frequencies Ignite, finds Matches For Memories raucous, raw, and redefining what they do best …. rock like no other. After digging deep, the group has managed to bring the intensity of their renowned live show and focus it into an amazing collection of songs. With a mixture of driving guitars, pulsing bass, pounding drums, and heartfelt vocals, Matches For Memories delivers an amazing expansion of their abilities. Featuring tracks such as ‘Well & Warm’, ‘Grace Is Such A Virtue’, ‘The Most’ and ‘Brilliant’, The Firefight EP finds the band looking at life through a tested, but hopeful lens towards the future … watching … as The Firefight begins …
