Bite the Hand - The Accidentals (Boy Genius Cover - Phoebe Bridgers, Lucy Dacus, Julien Baker)

~If you see it, you believe it, you do it. This year we want to be the "see it", that encourages the "believe it" that supports the "do it".

When we were in high school a female string duo called Moxie Strings came into our classroom and rocked out on their electric cello and violin and Katie and I decided "we can do that?!" That is how we became the Accidentals, which in turn altered every part of our lives. It gave a couple of shy kids the confidence to create and relate. We were inspired to play guitar by St. Vincent and Kaki King, violin by Scarlett Rivera, and write songs by SEVERAL female artists. Every Wednesday we post a cover video paying tribute to these old and new inspirations.~

Collaboration vs. Competition. One of my favorite musical moments of 2018 was seeing three artists we we follow (Lucy Dacus, Phoebe Bridgers and Julien Baker), take time out of their solo careers to come together and write, record and tour an EP under the name Boygenius. It’s easy for me to lose track of self worth amongst numbers of streams or social media followers, but at the end of the day the musical experiences we share with each other are the most fulfilling.
There are so many powerful supergroups we’ve seen rise in the last few years- The Highwomen, case/lang/veirs, I’m With Her, and Sweetwater Warblers to name a few. We are stronger when we stand together, when we lift each other up instead of worrying about who is higher on the charts. That’s our goal here, #PlayYourParagon is all about sharing what we are inspired by every day. This week we decided to release our cover of “Bite the Hand” by Boygenius
