   About THE ACCOLADE
THE ACCOLADE play a blend of Rock & Roll, Country, Blues & Skiffle. The young Bournemouth four-piece offer retro authenticity yet continue to turn heads with modern and original pop songs. This is alt-country with an upbeat and distinctly British edge.

The Accolade’s 14-track album "Still In The Cities" was released on 20.9.06 and marked by the launch gig at Mr Kyps. It is available now for £8.

You can buy "The Accolade" - the 12-track debut album (recorded July 2005) now for £5.

A new website will be under construction in the near future.

The new songs are ace, particularly 'She ain't Evil', which is unbelievably catchy. Your debut album is still on heavy rotation here too. Really hope you attract the audience you deserve with the new one.

Well...Lord Luv a Duck!...You won't believe it, but I've just won a ticket to the 'End of the Road' festival up at the Larmer Tree.Some bloke called Ryan Adams is topping the bill...and who's hiding away in his band The Cardinals?Why it's the very wonderful Mr.Neil Casal himself strummin' along.

......Should be mighty fine!

...and should set us up nicely for Mr.Kyps.
