The Accidental

The U.K.'s neo-psychedelic and indie folk act the Accidental formed around the talents of Trunk Records co-founder (and Memory Band member) Stephen Cracknell, main Tunng songwriter Sam Genders, Hannah Caughlin from Fence Collective duo the Bicycle Thieves, and singer/songwriter Liam Bailey. The group's home-recorded debut, There Were Wolves, arrived on the Full Time Hobby label in April 2008. A stateside release with Thrill Jockey Records followed that same year. ~ James Christopher Monger
