WHO ARE THEY?
Linnea started out on a farm in Sweden, a marching band saxophonist, choir singer and self-taught piano player discovered Belle and Sebastian and began writing her own songs. Moving to Berlin and becoming entangled in the city's music scene. Meeting an American called Rachel, a fellow former band geek at an open mic night and starting to collaborate. And finally meeting a bassist from the UK called Leah, and Matching Outfits was born!
In 2022 the band released their first album "Band Made Out Of Sand".
 
WHAT'S THE MEANING BEHIND THE MUSIC?
What happens in the year after a breakup? Time passes, the bird cherry blooms, birthdays come and go and the mundanity of daily life continues – just with a giant hole in the middle of it that nobody else seems to notice.

Turn a microscopic focus on that void, paint it in pastel colors, add a touch of Velvet Underground and internationally accented three-part harmonies, and you get something like Ditch Me by Matching Outfits. The Berlin trio’s sophomore album is about your boyfriend picking up toilet paper and some snacks on the way to your house – right before letting you know it’s over. It’s about realising the last time your names appeared side by side was in your grandmother’s obituary. It’s also about not being able to drive and shitty jobs and the oddities of city dating culture.
