Archive material and source history
The Accidental formed in 2004 when Michael John Atkins, David Ellard, and Simon Kennedy started playing together in Cheltenham, England. Their debut album 'Fingerprints' came out in 2008, with the single 'Birthday' getting attention for its nostalgic feel. They also recorded songs like 'Dream For Me' and 'Illuminated Red' that showed their interest in atmospheric arrangements.
After their first album, they kept making music through the 2010s, putting out records like 'The Odyssey' in 2014 and 'Love and Other Human Weaknesses' in 2017. Their sound stayed focused on thoughtful lyrics and melodic textures rather than fitting neatly into one genre. The band's catalog includes tracks ranging from the quiet 'I Can Hear Your Voice' to the more expansive 'Jaw Of A Whale'.
