Texas Lifestyle Magazine chose The Accidentals as the “band to see” at Austin City Limits, SXSW, calling them defiant, young – powerful, and undaunted.” 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. In 2019 they released a self-titled LIVE album and a single with New West Records, and toured the UK. They scored an indie film, taught workshops across the country, and finished recording their much anticipated studio album, Vessel, co-produced by John Congleton (St. Vincent, Lana Del Ray) and Tucker Martine (Nico Case, Decemberists). The band toured 150 dates, including backing up Keller Williams, Gabriel Kahane, and Martin Sexton on strings.

The Accidentals ushered in 2020 at NAMM (National Association of Music Merchants), representing Takamine, Fender, LR Baggs, SBC cases, Shure, Liquid Violins, NS design, Roland, Boss, Dream Cymbals, and D’Addario, followed by a successful Folk Alliance International appearances. They released a collaborative single with the Contemporary Youth Orchestra and The Rock Hall of Fame on record store day in April, and are continuing to drop several singles during COVID times. Pop Matters Magazine says, “you can’t define The Accidentals by comparison to any one band,” comparing them to a mashup of influences including “Decemberists, Avett Brothers, Beatles, and Brandi Carlile.” NPR calls them “some of the most compelling songwriters of our time.” Their music can be found online, all the streaming platforms, and they are looking forward to the return of live shows but have been embracing streaming shows in the meantime.
