Album DescriptionThe phrase "folk-supergroup" is enough to send shivers through the most optimistic of hearts, bringing to mind extended lute solos and an excess of hey nonny no's, however with the accidental we are luckily in safer hands. Take the man behind the memory band and co-founder of trunk records (stephen cracknell), the twisted songwriter from tunng main man (sam genders), one half of fence collective duo the bicycle thieves (hannah caughlin) and singer-songwriter liam bailey. Put them in front of a pc and add occasional input from guests including harpist serafina steer, lisa knapp, and various members of the elysian quartet and the memory band. The outcome is new collective the accidental and their beguiling album 'there were wolves'.
