It’s difficult to determine exactly what The Bird and the Bee singer Inara George’s motivation was for spending roughly half of Accidental Experimental on re-interpretations of tunes from her previous solo album, An Invitation. Was she unhappy with Van Dyke Parks’ fluid, orchestral-jazz arrangements on the latter? Did she just want to give some alternate possibilities their day in court? We’ll just have to go with George’s own disclaimer that this is “not a regular album” and take it at face value. Certainly the tunes that are reprised from An Invitation sound shockingly different when trading in their lush, string-laden settings for quirky art-pop. They also sound very much of a piece with the other tracks here, like “Captured,” which mates George’s elongated melodic phrases with gooey analog synth tones and Beach Boys-like backing-vocal counterpoint, and “Greedy,” where her plaintive croon is accompanied by little more than some muted piano chords and a distant atmospheric keyboard backdrop. And while Accidental Experimental seems unlikely to alienate The Bird and the Bee fans, it definitely represents yet another side of George’s musical personality.
