Just a month ago the female-fronted Alternative Hard Rockers Accidental President released their self-titled debut album. This week, the band has released a music video for their song Hateful. The video was premiered at Chicago's Hear She Roars.
Accidental President state about Hateful: "Caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. Targeted for your appearance. Taken advantage of. Attacked for being who you are. Held against your will. Disrespected. Objectified. Depersonalised. Brutalised. Dehumanised. But this time, YOU get to have the last say. A song of strength in desperation inspired by the testimony of an escaped abductee #respect #hateful"
If not obvious by the name, Accidental President is a band that wants to share their ethos of social awareness. This is especially relevant in our current times of political upheaval and inequalities around the world. The band connects with their listeners on a level much greater than just the music.
