Sleeps With Matches

About Me


View Sleeps With Matches's EPKSleeps With Matches; Rob landers- Vocals, guitar/Jason Riozzi - Guitar, vocals/Jake Daly - Bass/A.J Macknee - Drums/Sleeps With Matches are an energetic alt rock band originally from Kamloops, but now reside in Vancouver British Columbia. The Original line up was Rob Landers, Jason Riozzi, Aj.Mackne, and Joel Haugen who left the band shortly after recording. The band found bassist Jake Daly and this totally changed the sound and direction of the project. Loud/ quite and tricky time changes soon then followed. In the summer of 2008 Sir Jakob took a short break from the band to hang out in the forest, and Mr.Kristopher Ruston of bands such as The Squish, And Stowaway filled his place. He also produced their 2008 release. So with the whole band down in Vancouver they are booking shows and playing in pubs near you.Sleeps With Matches aimes to connect with people through great music and insightfull messages."We gotta find a way to connect An honest message that we want to reflect But first we got to gain your respect Don't write us off as an artistic defect"
