The duo, referred to as Striking Matches, met in college on a group assignment in 2010, then released their debut self-titled album less than two years later. Almost immediately, their song “When The Right One Comes Along” was featured on Nashville. They soon began touring across the nation, played for Nashville’s Season 2 premier party, and have performed at the Grand Ole Opry more than 15 times since.
The duo originally met and performed for Nashville’s music producer, Frankie Pine, when she and her team were leaving town and on their way to the airport. As Pine puts it, “They were the two greatest — they probably played like four songs for us and we loved every single one of them.” Zimmermann and Davis’ song “When The Right One Comes Along” was used to capture the tension, entanglement and longing between characters Scarlett and Gunner, which obviously led to an epic kiss scene. The duo has been writing together for three years now, and it’s clear that they have mastered the ability to connect with the listener through their steady performances, simple melodies and well-crafted lyrics.
