The Sexy Accident needs DRUMS!

The Sexy Accident needs a new drummer. We are a Kansas City-based indie pop three-piece (guitars, bass, drums) specializing in hyper-melodic efficiency ala The Wedding Present, Weezer, Spoon, etc.

Our current stick wielder is departing to join a professional cover band.

We have songs, a self-released CD, web site, practice space, merch, gigs booked through November and plan to record our sophomore effort with Steve Albini or Ed Rose in the spring.

We need you to be the backbone of this band. Timing and time are essential. We are looking for skill and restraint, though we'd love it if you'd spazz out once in a while. Must be willing to practice once weekly and play gigs in and out of town 2-3 times per month.

You can check out our first release at http://www.sexyaccident.com

Our next gig is October 27th in St. Louis. If you could play this that would be excellent. Contact us ASAP to arrange an audition! Use the web form at www.sexyaccident.com to reach us!

I am a bad, bad indie rocker!

I'm writing at the last minute to tell you that we are playing a show tomorrow night at Davey's Uptown in Kansas City, beginning promptly at 8pm. (We mean it. NO arriving at 8:30 if you want to see us. We'll be almost done by then. You know who you are.)

This one will be a bit different, as we're opening for a local country singer named Hallie Rose who is an acquaintance of BIlly Briz-own, our slammin' driz-ummer.

We intend to aggravate as many people as possible, as we truly and deeply believe that suffering is a valid artistic response to music.

Seriously, we promise we will not slay yr face. Nor ride an expressway to yr skull. But we shall bring forth that special musical blend that Kansas City is learning to call "The Gray Poupon of Rock n'Roll."
