The Accidentals are a folk-rock group who got their start in high school in Traverse City, earned their musical chops at the highly regarded Interlochen Academy, and have recorded an album under the tutelage of John Mellencamp producer Paul Mahern.

A friend of theirs asked them to come up with a song about their home state, and this is it. 

'Michigan and Again' is the lead single off their upcoming EP 'Parking Lot' and features footage from their recent national tour, and, of course, of our beautiful home state.

I love this song, because it's about the fact that no matter where you go in this world, it's always a special feeling when you get a glimpse of one the Great Lakes through the pine trees, and you know you're home. Good Lord, now I'm getting misty.
