About The Accidentals:
Female fronted, multi-instrumentalist power trio, The Accidentals, (Sav Buist, Katie Larson, and Michael Dause) kicked off 2018 with the release of their debut album, Odyssey, with Sony Masterworks. They followed the album release with two-hundred days of touring nationally, seventeen festivals, sync placement with Turner Classic Movies and FOX sports, and a RAM Trucks BANDvan #tourtough commercial.
They arent slowing down going into 2019. They just released a self titled LIVE album and toured the UK. They are currently scoring an indie film, teaching workshops across the country, playing with symphonies, and recording their much anticipated Vessel Album to be released in 2020.
In their down time Sav and Katie are the premier Nashville string team, composing, arranging, and playing string tracks for bands like BTS, Keller Williams, Flint Eastwood, etc. Their side project, "The Keller Williams Accident" showcases their improv skills as Kellers backing band. (if you haven't seen this show, it's worth a look).
Billboard Magazine says, The Accidentals display a genre-hopping range of influences and some smart songwriting skills to go with their abundant musical chops.
Pop Matters Magazine says, you cant define them by comparison to any one band, comparing them to a mash up of influences including, Beatles, Decemberists, Sufjan Stevens, Led Zepplin, ,Ani Defranko, Niko Case, Brandi Carlile, etc.
NPR says they display equal interest in the focused musical forms of indie rock and pop and the expansive potential of orchestral arrangements, jam band open-endedness and impressionistic singer-songwriter expression.
Don't take their word for it, come see for yourself. This band is just getting started.
About Megan Slankard:
San Francisco-based indie rocker Megan Slankard independently sold 40,000 copies of her five self-released albums and is planning her sixth release for this summer.
Megan packed 2018 with seven months of touring. She started with a 50-show Guitar Center tour with BOSE Professional, continued with a summer tour alongside Toad the Wet Sprocket and spent the fall touring with Nashville-based artist, Alex Wong. Her songwriting has received national and international recognition. In 2017, Megan won first place in the Unsigned Only Music Competition (AAA Category) and was a finalist in the International Songwriting Competition. She was a semi-finalist in the 2016 International Songwriting Competition, and in 2015, she was a two-time "Vox Pop" winner in the Independent Music Awards, a finalist in the USA Songwriting Competition and a semi-finalist in the UK Songwriting Contest.
About Stephie James:
Hailing from Detroit and currently based in East Nashville, Stephie James makes music that stands as a sultry embodiment of the past, but also a bracing reflection of the current cultural climate. Embracing the grittiness of yesteryears garage rock productions and also the bittersweet timelessness of Roy Orbison, this is unmistakably the music of countless romantic fantasies and of widescreen Lynchian aura. After a career zigzagging in between the crevices of others careers, all the while building a body of work and experiences of her own, Stephie James finally decided to step into the spotlight with a solo project by working with Andrija Tokic, who earned acclaim for producing Alabama Shakes groundbreaking first album. The album itself is a perfect distillation of the best elements Detroit rock has had to offer over the last two decades: timeless leather-cool, thanks to the resurgence of Iggy Pop and the omnipresence of Jack White- and, above all else, great songwriting. Without compromising an ounce of style, Stephie James and her band put your Americana expectations on the backfoot immediately: one part Phil Spector crooner and one part howling-for-blood rock n roll.
