    Press Reviews
    These guys from Pittsburgh should go on tour with Boston’s Pennywheel (see other entry): both groups pursue a similar vein of edge power pop with mildly glammy sensibilities. In other words, the same nervous energy that propels bands like Actionslacks and the Rosenbergs -- and the Happy Accidents are right up there, though I think they could try a bit harder lyrically. But it’s hugely fun party music, and they know how to keep their songs short. “Rollover” is easily their best work, an imaginative bit about escapism writ large. Check out their equally imaginative Flash video at their web site (www.thehappyaccidents.com), then get them to play at a college or two near you.
