_____
Cheer-Accident is a long-running Chicago-based ensemble known for its fearless approach to composition and genre. Blurring the lines between experimental rock, jazz, pop, and avant-garde music, the group has built a reputation for crafting intricate, often unpredictable works that balance technical precision with playful curiosity.
Formed in the early 1980s and led by drummer and composer Thymme Jones, Cheer-Accident has released an expansive catalog that spans decades, evolving constantly while maintaining a distinct, idiosyncratic voice. Their music can shift from tightly wound rhythmic structures to lush, melodic passages, often within the same piece—challenging expectations while remaining deeply engaging.
With a cult following and a legacy of collaboration across disciplines, Cheer-Accident continues to push boundaries, embodying a spirit of experimentation that is both rigorous and joyfully unconventional.
