Accident (UK)
We are a four piece disco/rock band from mansfield, nottinghamshire.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Woody (vocals/guitar) and Bog (drums) began in a four piece goth punk band called lost for words. (www.myspace.com/thelostforwordsband) we had a great time in that band but it didnt work out. Bog was already in a coldplay tribute band called square-one with simon and luke. Simon left and chris joined. Things didnt work out with chris so Woody from lost for words joined as bassist. We were playing coldplay songs for a while but it wasnt really going anywhere, so we suggested moving woody to guitar and luke to bass. And we wrote a song that sounded like coldplay! never kicked off really. Then woody wrote a song that sounded a bit upbeat... almost like dance music. It was cheesy and a bit rock, and it is now a crowd favourite! Accident was born on that day. And we wrote more songs after that we now have an album and we are writing our next one!
