From their music to their album covers and music videos, The Matches is one of the most creative rock bands in recent memory. Just wait until you see how they introudced their new bass player to the world.

From his fingers, to his bass, to his big toe ... The Matches give you an up close look into Mr. Dylan Rowe. Did I mention that you will also get the opportunity to witness his style of handshake and how high he can jump? How do The Matches come up with this stuff!?

Back in July the band revealed that longtime bassist Justin San Souci was leaving the band to pursue other interests.  In August the band announced that Rowe would officially be their new bass player.

The Matches released their third full-length, A Band in Hope, earlier this year and Buzznet recently debuted their music video for "Yankee in a Chip Shop.'

Is Rowe a perect fit for The Matches? Do you think the band's live show will be affected by Souci's absence?
