Strangers by Accident www.strangersbyaccident.com Hailing from Boston, Strangers by Accident are an authentic, energetic indie-folk act with an old-school respect for songwriting. Started by Brian Sousa and Amy Wynne in 2015, the duo has since become a powerful live act, adding Justin Bartlett on vocals /electric guitar, and Heidi Crampton on drums. The band’s lyrically-driven songs feature three-part harmonies and veer from suitcase-stomping acoustic, to snare-pounding electric, to minimalist folk. Brian and Amy have stayed true to their influences: Nirvana, The Head and the Heart, Deer Tick, strong beer, and cheap bourbon; but also discovered a unique union of sound in their powerful songs about heartbreak and revival, recently described as “if Keith Richards was drinkin’ Ryan Adams at an Outlaw Honkeytonk.”
