Saturday, May 13 EN ATTENDANT ANA Chime School Vivian Panache with DJ Fernando (kalx) 8 pm doors $15 advance $18 doors all ages En Attendant Ana are a Parisian indie quintet whose tightly focused melodies and energetic attack are fused with a curious blend of harmonic sophistication and wild abandon. Fronted by singer and chief songwriter Margaux Bouchaudon, En Attendant Ana are primarily a guitar band, though they make good use of multi-instrumentalist Camille Fréchou, whose lofty trumpet lines add a distinctive finesse to the group's energetic post-punk meets indie pop arrangements. Sung in a straight, unaffected delivery, Bouchaudon's vibrato-less voice acts almost like a horn itself, drawing attention to the neatly crafted melodies. They manage to deliver thrilling, wholly committed performances with an organic liveliness that also adheres to a sort of Krautrock precision. There are shades of classic Stereolab in En Attendant Ana's stylish analog tone and sizzling vintage organs, though their garage-pop aesthetic and spiky attack feels ultimately more human. Infectious in spirit and boasting numerous memorable songs. https://enattendantana.bandcamp.com/ Chime School is the project of San Francisco musician Andy Pastalaniec. Aptly named for its autodidact roots, Chime School pays homage to the formative jangle of The Byrds by way of early Primal Scream and The Springfields; the production and pop sensibility of the Biff Bang Pow and The Razorcuts; and the spirit of great singles labels like Creation, Postcard and Sarah. https://chimeschool.bandcamp.com/ Vivian Panache: https://dancewiththebeat.bandcamp.com/album/move-your-body
