Bleeding Audio

Bleeding Audio details the rollercoaster career of the Oakland pop punk band The Matches. Like many acts in the early 2000s, they were set to be the next big thing. After building a tight-knit music community in the Bay Area, The Matches broke out and became an internationally touring act. An eclectic group of artistic weirdos, the band grew a thriving cult fanbase worldwide, yet remained virtually penniless. Their story overlaps with the drastic changes of the music industry since the takeover of the digital revolution- from declining sales, to excessive touring, to illegal downloading and streaming. With interviews from some of music's biggest names like Mark Hoppus (Blink 182), Nick Hexum (311) and Tom Higgenson (Plain White T's), Bay Area filmmaker Chelsea Christer's uplifting tribute tracks The Matches' history and recent reunion to dig deeper into the challenges the average musician faces in the digital age of the industry-and the community that keeps our artists alive.
