The life of Carissa's Wierd

CARISSA'S WIERD
This band crafts some of the most perfectly orchestrated songs of love and love lost. Oh, so good. The way Jenn Ghetto's voice mingles with Mat Brooke's voice just kills me. Absolutely decimates my soul. And I wouldn't have it any other way. This song is my absolute favorite. Her voice reeks of desperation and just drips with the sentiment of a person who has given up all conceivable means of hope that things will change. God, why do we even wake in the mornings?





S
After Carissa's Wierd split, Jenn Ghetto branched off on her own with the solo project entitled S. Believe me, the beautiful songs only continued. Here is a fan-made video of one of her best songs.





I suppose there are other bands that formed out of Carissa's Wierd, but I don't need to tell you about them. It's easy enough to do your own research. Logical trains of research follow:

Carissa's Wierd -> Jenn Ghetto/Mat Brooke collaboration on a tribute to the Six Parts Seven covering "On Marriage" -> Nov.16 -> Horses -> Band of Horses -> The Grand Archives

Carissa's Wierd -> Jenn Ghetto/Mat Brooke collaboration on a tribute to the Six Parts Seven covering "On Marriage" -> S -> Jenn Ghetto's pseudo metal band of which I do not recall the name

Carissa's Wierd -> Sera Cahoone solo career
