The Accidentals have exploded out of their native Traverse City, and their Interlochen training, to stride the world with their genre-busting sound and indomitable spirit. Three multi-instrumentalists with the power to do anything, but the pyrotechnic playing is always tempered to serve the song, the melody, the moment. One of the absolute busiest touring acts in America, with over 300 shows played last year, chances are good they have come to your town, or will soon. Savannah Buist and Katie Larson write music of honesty, insight and perception, without relying on love songs or cheap tricks. Michael Dause, the new guy (joined in 2014), is a percussionist of precision and agility, with his own solo career to boot. Guitar, bass, mandolin, viola, cello, violin, banjo, and a whole lotta drums may come into play. This is timeless music by young people, and the horizon is endless. Albums available: Tangled Red And Blue (2012), Bitter Sweet (2013), Parking Lot EP (2016), Odyssey (2017), The Accidentals Live (an album of all new songs) (2019).
