Join the Wild Rose Moon this Saturday, October 4th, from 7 to 9 p.m. for a concert featuring The Matchsellers, who will be live-taping their third episode of the Wild Rose Moon Radio Hour. Founded by Warsaw native Andrew Morris (guitar) and Kansas City-born Julie Bates (fiddle) in Germany in 2013, The Matchsellers emerged after they met while working as English teachers in Germany. Since then, they have developed a unique style and live performance that leaves audiences laughing, dancing, crying, and wondering what will happen next.
With five albums to their credit -- Bluegrasstronaughts, One Fine Sweet and Sunny Day, The Wishful Thinkers’ Hall of Fame, Live at the Warehouse, and their most recent release, Psychobiography -- The Matchsellers have made a name for themselves while touring around the globe. Their performance highlights include appearances on NPR's Mountain Stage, at the Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, the John Hartford Festival, the Wild Rose Moon Radio Hour, and the Folk Alliance Showcase in both 2018 and 2024.
WRM Director George Schricker shares, “When Warsaw, Indiana-born Andrew Morris and his partner, Julie Bates, first stepped onstage at Wild Rose Moon, I knew we were in for something unique and remarkable. Here was a bluegrass couple writing quirky songs together — Andrew bouncing wacky patter off his fiddle partner’s deadpan rhetorical quips, ‘Oh, Andrewwwwww . . .” All the while delivering the material with impeccable timing and superb musicianship. It’s no surprise they have gained popularity worldwide – it’s lightning in story and song.”
Tickets are $25 and can be purchased in Plymouth at A.S.K. for Flowers or online at wildrosemoon.com. For more information, call the Wild Rose Moon Performing Arts Center in Plymouth at 574-276-1185.
