The Accidentals are an American musical band that defies easy classification, with a sound that merges elements of folk, rock, pop, and beyond. Formed in Traverse City, Michigan, by multi-instrumentalists Savannah Buist and Katie Larson, the band came into being during their high school years in 2011. They were later joined by Michael Dause as a full-time member in 2014, rounding out their dynamic sound with added percussion and vocals. Known for their virtuosic string work, compelling harmonies, and thoughtfully crafted lyrics, The Accidentals quickly built a reputation for their imaginative songwriting and breathtaking live performances.

Over the years, The Accidentals' discography has showcased their versatility and growth as artists. Their recent releases such as "Time Out," "Reimagined," and "Vessel," affirm their commitment to pushing the boundaries of indie music. They engage with a variety of themes ranging from introspective musings in "Crow's Feet" to ecological awareness in "Mangrove." Their ambitious "Time Out Session" series reflects their penchant for experimentation and collaboration, featuring a range of reworked tracks with both new textures and guest artists. As they continue to chart their unique path through the music world, The Accidentals remain a vibrant and refreshing voice, capturing the hearts of listeners with their nuanced and passionate approach to songcraft.
