During the 2020, COVID-19 quarantine, Sara Niemietz teamed up with the acapella group Accent to produce Public Service Announcement style music-videos with an upbeat message.

Accent Vocal is a sextet formed in 2011.[1] Because of their diverse locations, the formation of Accent was internet inspired and enabled. The group worked remotely until they were invited to perform at the Swedish choral festival (Lund??) in 2014. [2] The group styles itself and follows in the tradition of groups like Take 6 and The Hi-Lo's.[3]

Sara Niemietz is an independent songwriter and vocal stylist; she is a cast member of Postmodern Jukebox, charting on over a dozen singles, and has recorded with Richard Marx and B. J. Thomas.
