Ugly (UK) is a London-based six-piece British art rock band from Cambridge formed in 2016.
[1][2][3] The group has performed with and likened to Black Country, New Road and Lime Garden.

[8] Original band members included guitarists Samuel Goater and Harrison Jones, drummer Charlie Wayne and bassist Brodie Weir, who met each other in college in Cambridge.
[9][10] The band underwent a time of self-reflection in 2022, and changed their sound from a grittier, post-rock feel to an ensemble and vocal driven approach.
