After years of hard work, The duo of Sarah Zimmermann and Justin Davis — better known as Striking Matches — are set to release their debut full-length album via the new indie label I.R.S. Nashville. The duo worked with multi-Grammy winning producer T Bone Burnett for the recording of Nothing But The Silence and they showcase their stunning harmony and instrumental abilities throughout the eleven tracks featured on the project.
"The fact that we are releasing our debut album in itself is a dream come true," said Zimmermann. "I have to pinch myself every time I tell someone that one of our all-time biggest heroes, T Bone Burnett, produced our record. Just to be in the same room with him is an honor, let alone working in the studio with him.”
Nothing But The Silence will be released on March 25, 2015.
"We've waited all of our lives to get here to the beginning," said Davis. "Working with T Bone, releasing our first record, and the freedom to play as musicians on it have all been attributes to this project that made all the work and waiting a very worthy price of admission.”
Two of the duo’s songs on Nothing But The Silence were previously recorded by the cast of Nashville. Those songs, “When The Right One Comes Along” and “Hanging A Lie” perhaps showcase the band better than anything else they’ve ever done. The cast of ABC’s Nashville has cut a total of 8 songs written by Zimmermann and Davis.
