Burt Bacharach, Robert Smith, Stevie Nicks and Patsy Cline walk into a bar...
"The Incidentals are full of contradictions - simultaneously familiar and strange, both a tribute and a deconstruction, a moody noirish dance party that shouldn't work but totally, totally does.
Familiar songs take on new identities in the hands of The Incidentals. Material from Patsy Cline to Neil Young, from The Cure to The Carpenters, gets reinterpreted with drama, mystery, and soul. A simple line up of guitar, upright bass, and drums is fronted by Sioban Dixon's dynamic vocals creating a sound that draws on the band's combined experience of playing indie, jazz, soul, Americana, punk, and experimental music."
