Matching Outfits

Matching Outfits are a trio of adopted Berliners whose warped, wistful take on indie pop has been compared to “a Super 8 film from the family attic”. The lyrics capture life’s major losses and minor inconveniences in gut-wrenching, occasionally hilarious detail, while bright keyboard chords and dulcet three-part harmonies morph into discordant freakouts and shout-along choruses. In 2022, the group released its debut album Band Made Out Of Sand on Berlin cassette label Kitchen Leg. Among other honors, it received heavy play on cult US radio station WFMU. The band does not wear matching outfits, except when they do.
