Accidental President are a female fronted Alt-Rock 3 piece playing their own brand of hard rock mixed heavily with goth and metal influences – with a theatrical flair. The band released their self titled debut album on Wednesday, 1 July 2020. The band is thrilled to reveal a brand new music video Strength Inside, which was premiered on Tuesday, 14 July 2020, at GhostCultMag.com.
Accidental President says about the video: “1st July 1916 saw the start of one of the bloodiest battles in all of human history – The Battle of the Somme. By the 141-day battle’s end, the Allies and Central powers suffered more than a million casualties combined. ‘Strength Inside’ is dedicated to the memory of their lives & all who are called. We must remember, but we must also learn.”
As AP can’t get out for a live in-person concert to premiere their debut record given the current state of the world, they’re bringing it directly to you at home: To promote their debut album Accidental President they’ll be streaming LIVE & LOUD from Streaming Factory on Saturday, 18 July @ 20:00 AEST (10:00 UTC). If you need any convincing, it’s from the same studio where they shot their video for Rotten Child.

Hard work and passion are the backbones of a successful band and Accidental President fits the bill perfectly. Originally formed in 2015, the group has gone through a long, hard road of ‘Spinal Tap-esqe’ lineup changes and life events that caused a lot of pitfalls in their development. Their passion never slowed though and Accidental President used these challenges as motivation to build something spectacular that is now ready for the world to hear.
The Sydney, Australia based band has formed their own brand of hard rock mixed heavily with goth and metal influences. Adding to their intrigue and performance, Accidental President throws in a theatrical flair to grab all of your senses.
