CHEER-ACCIDENT

 Hailing from the singularly vibrant musical hotbed known as Chicago, CHEER-ACCIDENT has been a creative, vital force in rock music for over 20 years. They constantly strive to surprise their audiences and themselves through relentless reinvention. From dreamy pop to angular art-rock, CHEER-ACCIDENT strikes a powerful balance between personalized and unique studio wizardry and the visceral excitement of a well-honed, explosive live rock band. The band is a quintet at its foundation, fronted by Carmen Armillas, whose powerfully emotive voice has recently led CHEER-ACCIDENT down the path of even deeper connectedness with their already-loyal audience. Presenting itself in various configurations, the band’s core personnel is frequently augmented by some of Chicago’s finest musicians. Jeff Libersher- guitar, trumpetAlex Perkolup- bassThymme Jones- drums, vocals, trumpet, keysDroneLayer- guitar, keyboards, vocalsLaura Boton- vocals and keyboardsMike Hagedorn- low and high brassCory Bengtsen- bari sax, e-sax, keys, laptopRoss Feller- soprano sax, tenor sax
