At The Country Café, we are an authentic Southern style Listening Room. This means there is one simple rule : You allow our musicians to set the tone of the room. If it’s upbeat and high tempo, join in! If its intimate and personal then please respect the musician and listen, keeping chatter and noise levels to a minimum. Our musicians are not background noise.
Gasoline & Matches are a high energy, multi-award winning, dual fronted British band combining close harmonies, melodic guitar licks and serious musicianship.
Fronted by Birmingham natives Sally Rea Morris and Stephen Marks, they are fierce entertainers known for their tongue-in-cheek and much-loved song “Never Have I Ever” described by Bob Harris as “Clever, funny, totally original…and it’s Country!” They built momentum after multiple spins on BBC Radio 2, and never fail to get festival goers on their feet to participate in the infamous drinking game which inspired the song.
As resident hosts of Nashville Sounds in the Round at Birmingham Symphony Hall, it’s clear to see their contribution and influence on Country and Americana music in the Midlands.
