ENJOY 'SCINTILLATING COUNTRY ROCK' WITH STRIKING MATCHES

Striking Matches have just announced a UK tour for November.

But why wait that long?

The hotly-tipped Nashville duo are a late addition to The Stables programme and play on Thursday (May 14).

'An engaging blend of slick country storytelling scuffed up with rockier riffs,' declared one music scribe.

There's a good chance a fair few of you will already be familiar with their music, even if you don't know it – a number of Striking Matches songs have been featured on hit More 4 drama Nashville.

The debut album, Nothing But the Silence is fresh to the racks, and was produced by Grammy winner T-Bone Burnett.

A new single is coming too, Trouble Is As Trouble Does will be released on June 1.
