Carissa's Wierd Record First New Songs in Seven Years

Aug 8, 2011, 4:19pm TwentyFourBit
Carissa's Wierd Record First New Songs in Seven Years Last year, the excellent Seattle indie sad-core outfit Carissa’s Wierd reunited for a one-off concert in their hometown to celebrate the release of a new retrospective compilation , They’ll Only Miss You When You Leave: Songs 1996-2003 , via Hardly Art. That release — complete with remastered cuts of “Die” and “The Color That Your Eyes Changed With the Color of Your Hair” — recruited a slew of new listeners while leaving longtime fans hungry for more material. Enter “Meredith & Iris,” a new Mat Brooke (Grand Archives, Band of Horses) and Jenn Ghetto-led [...]

mp3: Carissa’s Wierd – “Meredith & Iris”

Aug 8, 2011, 9:15am Audio Milk
mp3: Carissa’s Wierd – “Meredith & Iris” Carissa’s Wierd , one of Seattle’s hidden gems, has surfaced once again. The band is best known for their heart-rending and honest lyrics woven with piano and orchestral strings. Their live shows are intimate, emotional, and hushed. After breaking up in 2003, some members moved on to other prominent musical endeavors such as Band of Horses , Grand Archives , and the solo project of Sera Cahoone . We all thought the tragically sweet music of Carissa’s Wierd was laid to rest. Last July, it came as a surprise to hear that the band would celebrate the release [...]

Wanted: Indie/folk tribute to the Bee Gees

Jan 14, 2011, 5:00am Atomic Ned
Ray Lamontagne & Damien Rice - To love somebody
Last weekend I heard the Bee Gees disco classic "More than a Woman" on XM radio. It really is the epitome of '70s disco music and while I grew up on this stuff (thanks to the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack which was a staple in everybody's record collection in the late '70s), Barry Gibb's falsetto vocals can be a bit grating at time. But as I listened to the song, I was deconstructing it down to it's bare core and was imaging it being performed by some bearded, indie folk rock act like Iron & Wine. [...]

The Moondoggies – Tidelands

Oct 13, 2010, 11:03pm Austin Town Hall
The Moondoggies – Tidelands Rating: 3 out of 5 stars We can easily classify Moondoggies under the realm of folk harmony rock, as that's clearly where their new album, Tidelands , has come to rest.  But, while you're likely to use the Northwest as a reference point, due to the band's location, and current trends, there seems to be a bit more nostalgic Americana on this record, which definitely makes it worth your listening ears. Unfortunately, "It's a Shame, It's a Pity" opens up , which [...]
