S is the solo project of Carissa's Wierd guitarist and vocalist Jenn Ghetto. Hailing from sunny Tucson, but residing in the somewhat wetter Seattle, Jenn Ghetto records as S almost entirely on a four-track alone in her bedroom. S gives us little rainy-day notes and diary entries of heart-wrenching memories and personal experiences, all with a spaced-out lo-fi sound that recalls fellow Northwestern low-key indie rockers the Spinanes. Sadstyle, S's debut, was recorded from 1997 through 1999 and was released on Brown Records in 2001. The Suicide Squeeze-issued Puking and Crying arrived in 2004, followed by I'm Not as Good at It as You in 2010 and the Chris Walla-produced Cool Choices in 2014. ~ Charles Spano
