The Accidentals Present: TimeOut w/ Megan Slankard and Stephie James
Time Out is an intimate singer-songwriter, behind the songs, story-telling concert. It is equal parts heart wrenching and inspirational. Four powerful songwriters- all on stage together- in the round, sharing stories and songs.
"Our Time Out series is where we get back to our songwriting roots. Katie and I started out as songwriters before the band took off and we became known as The Accidentals. We individually wrote every song on our albums. If I am singing it, I wrote it. If Katie is singing it, she wrote it. We arrange the songs as a band. Time Out gives us a chance to deep dive at that moment in time when the song was born. It's a snapshot of where we were or what we were trying to say, or how we were getting rid of all the stories we had accumulated. The "in the round" format of these shows lets us listen and be inspired by other artists and their stories and creates a space that is inclusive and inspirational. If you get a chance to see this show - do it. It really is a life-changer. We learned more on this tour than we could have imagined. We met so many people that shared their own stories with us along the way and were touched by the outpouring of love and genuine camaraderie. Thirteen sold-out cities are nothing to joke about. We look forward to another Time Out run soon..
The Accidentals were dubbed "some of the most compelling songwriters of our time" by NPR music. We are proud to present:
Megan Slankard is one of the funniest people on the planet and her voice is absolutely riveting, her songs make you want to live your best life.
Stephie James is like if Amy Winehouse and Roy Orbison had a baby and Patsy Cline raised it. She writes music from another era, both modern and timeless. Mile of Music presents Time Out.
