Former Pixies bassist Paz Lenchantin is reviving her solo career with the upcoming album, Triste, which is set for release on October 17. The 12-song project includes the lead single, “Hang Tough,” which features contributions from her former A Perfect Circle bandmates Josh Freese and Troy Van Leeuwen, as well as a music video starring and directed by Lenchantin. “I had to make this record on my own,” Lenchantin says in a statement, “not to prove anything, but just to have faith that music can nurture me back. And it did.” Drawing on a deeply personal and metaphorical exploration of salvation and self-discovery, Lenchantin created much of the album independently, while also collaborating with Spanish-speaking musicians she met while writing the record in Mexico. After parting ways with the Pixies in 2024, Lenchantin chose to focus on her own music rather than join another high-profile band, embracing her own creative freedom while marking a significant sonic departure from her previous alternative rock work.
