About Me

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Accidental Occurrence is currently only playing as George Korein and the Accidental Occurrence, in which we play the music of the amazing George Korein. For info on shows, check out George's page @ myspace.com/georgekorein. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!The Accidental Occurrence is an independent Philadelphia-based band that does not make vague, idle promises like having a unique sound or being unclassifiable, but rather offers a solid catalog of songs that come from every musical direction, filtered through a ROCK BAND. The group offers a fresh take on composition and performance and consists of a unique lineup of vocals and guitar (Nick Millevoi), synth-bass (Jon Mullen), and drums (Rob Ludington).
The Bucks County Courier Times agrees that the bands approach has worked and has said that they promise listeners a "mesmerizing sonic experience." The Accidental Occurrence can be seen all over the Philadelphia area (the Khyber, the Five Spot, the Fire) and have also been spotted outside the area in places like New York, Boston, and Baltimore. The band has released one EP, Tiny Animals Live In Trees (Well Below Records) and they released their 10 song, self-recorded full length album "Good Luck Getting Through" in October 2006.
Good Luck Getting Through is available for $10, shipping included, just by clicking this little button--- MyGen Profile Generator

Sounds Like: So there's this guy right? He's searching for something, in the desert... not water, you'd assume it'd be water right, because he's in the desert searching, but this is a fairly resourcefull guy. He's got water, and lots of it... he came well prepared for his journey.And so he's searching for something out there, and in all the wandering he comes across a small enclave of rocks. Upon crouching down to look under these rocks he's bitten by a rattle snake, and as the pain and toxins fill up his body things become a bit more precise... a bit.. more real, than they ever were.And the thing he notices more than anything, in this moment, is the rattle of the snake.. reverberating across the desert... it's sound traveling a split second faster than his heart can pump new blood, and unfortunately for him fresh poison, through his veins with every pulse of that fine muscle... and he focuses on this sound, the throbbing sound of his own heart killing him.... do you understand what he's hearing? Hearing his mortality??Well, our music is nothing like that.

The Khyber... REDUX!

Much like Apocalypse Now, the Accidental Occurrence are prime material for repeat viewing, and 40 minute extended scenes that have nothing to do with the plot-line... so if you missed the Khyber show...
