· Formed in 1995 by Mat Brooke and Jenn Ghetto,
Carissa's Weird spent the better part of a decade
crafting intricate, melancholic music with hushed
harmonies, heartrending lyrics, and sweeping
string movements.
· Incarnations of the band also included Sera
Cahoone, Ben Bridwell, Sarah Standard, and Jeff
Hellis, amongst others.
· Upon the dissolution of Carissa's Weird, former
members of the band went on to form Grand
Archives, S, Sera Cahoone, and most notably,
Band of Horses.
· Following the release of the retrospective
compilation, ‘They’ll Only Miss You When You
Leave: Songs 1996-2003’, Hardly Art is reissuing
all three of the Carissa’s Weird full-lengths.
· Long out of print, ‘Ugly But Honest’ is the first
record in the Carissa’s Weird trilogy - originally
released on CD by Brown Records in 2000 - and
will be released on vinyl and digitally for the first
time via Hardly Art.
· The vinyl version comes on opaque blue double
vinyl housed in a full-color gatefold jacket and
includes a download code.
