Artists To Watch In 2026: The Freak Accident

From the guitar power behind Alternative Tentacles bands like Victim’s Family, The Hellworms, Saturn’s Flea Collar, and Jello Biafra and the Guantanamo School of Medicine, comes The Freak Accident. Like a determined yet fun-loving Phoenix, Ralph Spight is back and tweaking the boundaries of this thing called… rock? spazz-pop? funk-punk?… all over again. He just can’t stop reinventing his musical vision and in the process add much-needed variety and creativity to today’s often moribund and imitative music scene. 

They JUST dropped a brand new album, The Midnight Show on Nadine Records, so expect to see them everywhere this year! Don’t forget, they dropped their unforgettable self-titled debut album on Alternative Tentacles!

So what are you waiting for, jump on board and hang on!
