Paz Lenchantin, Psychedelic Goddess

The Entrance Band's bassist discusses her inspirations and their Satellite residency

"Anyway, last August I got a phone call saying there's a movie coming out now in May called Everything Must Go with Will Ferrell, and they're using one of the tracks in the end credits, I think." The movie is based on Raymond Carver's short story "Why Don't You Dance?"

The recordings on Songs for Luci — intimate and immediate, spontaneous and true — are of a piece with the kind of music Lenchantin has been listening to in preparation for the new Entrance Band record and shows. "I've been listening to a lot of mixtapes that are made by Mississippi Records," she said, referring to the lovingly curated selections of old recordings put out by the Portland, Ore., label. The Entrance Band tour vehicles have been grooving to music from Thailand, Link Wray and Thelonious Monk.

More About

"There's an influence, obviously, that we all can relate to by listening," Lenchantin said. "We all love similar things and we are all pretty similar in our tastes, which is one of our unions. So obviously we are westernized, coming fundamentally from the blues architecture but incorporating other sounds from other parts of the world or things we're into, be it rhythms or chords or harmonies. But yeah, chord structures: Music is very similar to architecture. It's a sound architecture."

THE ENTRANCE BAND performs a Thursday residency at the Satellite on March 3, 10, 17, 24 and 31. Every set will be different. 1717 Silverlake Blvd., Silver Lake. (323) 661-4380, thesatellitela.com.
