Striking Matches, the guitar-driven duo comprised of Sarah Zimmermann and Justin Davis, creates an unexpected and unique sound that defies easy categorization on their full-length debut album, Nothing But The Silence, produced by the legendary T Bone Burnett, available now: iTunes and Amazon.

CMT hosted the world premiere of duo Striking Matches’ music video for their debut single “Hanging On A Lie.” The video debuted this morning on CMT, CMT Pure, Cmt.com and CMT Artists App. Fans can now view the video HERE.

In her list of artists to watch out for in 2015, NPR Music’s Ann Powers singled out Striking Matches calling them a “perfectly balanced duo.” She continued, stating “They both have incredible skills. They both have wonderful voices. Their harmonies are fabulous. And they both play the heck out of the guitar!”
