Magana (bassist for Mitski, Lady Lamb) put out a new record today and it is extremely delightful. What a treat. We had the chance to speak with her about it and you can hear the full Absent Sounds interview on cjam.ca today! We do a track by track, joke about fruits, potatoes and of course, chat about teeth! 

“I recorded this during lockdown in the pandemic. The world started to look strange to me, as if I was an alien plopped down in the middle of Los Angeles but with all these human feelings. I wanted this album to reflect that not only in the lyrics but in the soundscapes as well. I wanted it to sound like earth and space at the same time, so I arranged acoustic guitars, strings, and winds to weave in and out of synth lines and electric guitar solos.” – Jeni Magaña
