The Accidentals - Time Out - Session 1 (2021)

Summing up The Accidentals in a concise, one-sentence description is nearly impossible. From the indie-folk-punk sound of their live show to the deep Americana strings on their soon to be released TIME OUT EP, you can’t put this band in a box. Yes, band members Sav Buist and Katie Larson are well-accomplished classical musicians, but at the same time, they have no problem picking up an electric guitar and bass to join fellow multi-instrumentalist Michael Dause in their full-blown indie power trio. Yes, they tour in rock clubs and play world-renowned festivals, but they take time out to teach workshops and inspire young, budding musicians across the country. Yes, they’ve played strings for international superstars like BTS, but they also back up jam-band mainstay Keller Williams in their side-project The Keller Williams Accident.

A five-song EP of all-new co-written material, TIME OUT features songwriting collaborations between The Accidentals and renown songwriters that Buist says, “Were among our earliest influences, their songs inspired us to try our hand at songwriting.” She’s talking about songwriters Kim Richey, Dar Williams, Maia Sharp, Tom Paxton, and Mary Gauthier & Jaimee Harris​.
