Accidentals Roster
NOTE: Due to the ever-changing nature of the
Accidentals' Graduation Dates, the dates listed beside the names are the years that they
ENTERED the group.
Chris Adams is a
21-year old sophomore from Blairsville, GA. (Also referred to as "Blarrsviille,"
or "up in the hills.") Chris, a pianist and Music Education major, names Billy
Joel, Frank Sinatra, and Harry Connick, Jr. as his heroes. He enjoys traveling, singing ,
basketball, women, and entertaining the Accidentals with his many stories of "what he
did growin' up in the mountains."
Chris has an incredible knack for saying
things at the wrong time. It truly is a gift.
Barron
Breland is a 19-year old sophomore from Powder Springs, GA,
majoring in Music Education. His future career plans are "to change the world through
music....one song at a time." (How cute) Barron is a pianist, and also sings in the
Concert Choir and plays saxophone in the UGA Redcoat Marching Band.
Josh Byrd is a 21-year old senior Music Education major from Cleveland, TN, and is one of four drum majors of the
UGA Redcoat Marching Band, plans to one day be a high school band director, and enjoys
camping, drumming, singing, and playing saxophone.
Josh has been voted the Accidental
most likely to be described as "cute".
David Daly or "Slappy" to the Accidentals, is a 21 year old senior from Florence,
SC. Dave is majoring in Music, and plans to one day work in the field of Arts
Administration. Slappy is the Accidentals' fearless leader in arms and legs, acting both
as Assistant Director and Business Manager. In addition to singing with the Accidentals,
he plays bass trombone in several ensembles in the School of Music, including the Redcoat
Band (like half of the group). Dave enjoys golf, football, music of all kinds, and
watching movies on Josh Byrd's incredible home theater system.
Slappy has been voted the
Accidental most likely to be mistaken for a beanpole.
Brad Frink "Frinkidink" is a 20-year old sophomore from Cartersville, GA.
While Brad hasn't decided on any concrete future plans, he knows he doesn't
want to sell used cars anymore. He loves girls, rock climbing and money. Brad is also one
of the campus' fearless bus drivers.
Manolo
Guardiola The group's resident Latino Lover, is a junior
Music Education major from Fayetteville, GA - halfway through the five-year plan for
obtaining a four-year degree. He is a voice student and a member of the Redcoat Marching
Band. His loves include pizza, pasta, the History Channel, his parents, and Jesus.
According to Manolo, he sings in the Accidentals to pick up chicks, but for some reason,
he never remembers to ask any out. A man of many talents, "Granola" works as
both the group's Treasurer and Secretary.
Steve Martin (no info)
Allen
Edwards, one of the two "young bucks" in the
group, is an 18-year-old freshman Secondary Education major from Moultrie, GA. A graduate
of Colquitt County High School (pronounced Call-quit for you Atlanta people). Allen hopes
to one day magically transform himself into Jimmy Buffett and become a career beach bum in
Key West. While he did not design this page (thanks Chris Kern), as the group's Webmaster,
he has the task of keeping it updated.
Allen is the group's "sensitive
soul" after an unfortunate incident involving an email to his girlfriend, which was
accidentally addressed to the group's listserv.
Brian Morgan, is a freshman music education major. He is the youngest person in the group and
prides himself in acting like it. He resides in the half of the group which is not in
David Daly's aforementioned "Redcoat Band." When asked about what he thinks of
being a part of this group, Brian replied only by saying: "It is fun." He is
also known to the group as the 'crash test dummy' and will not be responsible for any
transportation needs in upcoming performances, unless, of course, the group is running
late. Even then, however, Brian actually driving the group anywhere is doubtful.
Brian describes himself as the
Accidental most likely to be labeled annoying.
Kris McDonald or "Little Kris," is a 21-year old
therapeutic recreation and leisure service major with an emphasis in music therapy (We
laughed too). The token Texan on board, Kris originally hails from Arlington. His future
plans include traveling, having fun and taking a nap.
Paul
Berrell, Paul Berrell, or "Paulie" is a 20-year
old Sophomore Music Ed. major from Duluth, GA who enjoys singing, playing piano, writing
and arranging music. His musical influences include Jars of Clay, Rich Mullins, Vocal
Tonic, Billy Joel and Chris Rice to name a few. In his spare time, Paul enjoys hanging out
at Jittery Joe's, taking road trips, hiking, taking naps, and laughing until his sides
hurt. As the group's newly appointed "Album Director," Paul will have the
pleasure of overseeing the production of two new CDs in the coming months...watch for
signs of nervous breakdowns!!!
Paul is the Accidentals
most likely to be called "Shermanator."
