# ***Complete [Organizam Star](https://organizamstar.wordpress.com/ "The Sound Of Who We Are") Archive!*** *** # ***"La Sera" Biography*** ***“La Sera”*** began as the dreamy pop songwriting vehicle for ***[Brooklyn](https://cutt.ly/cWwPjIO)*** bassist ***[Katy Goodman](https://cutt.ly/kWwOM5H) (Kickball Katy)***, also known as a member of noise pop band ***“[Vivian Girls](https://cutt.ly/qWwPvpX)”***, then shifted styles from *punk* to *alt-country* as she progressed. After she sent initial demos to good friend, filmmaker, and music producer ***Brady Hall***, who fell for the charming, ethereal vocals and '50s pop influences that ***Goodman*** exudes; he re-recorded material at his home studios in ***Seattle***, and the outfit signed to ***“[Hardly Art Records](https://cutt.ly/UWwP5fM)”*** in 2010, and subsequently released the ***"[Never Come Around](https://cutt.ly/NWwWroi)"***. Their songs touched on an array of emotions, with heartbreak, love, and death all covered in each song with three minutes of dreamy guitar and reverb-washed harmonies. > For her second album ***“Sees the Light”***, released by ***“[Hardly Art](https://cutt.ly/UWwP5fM)”*** in the spring of 2012. ***Goodman*** enlisted ***Rob Barbato*** (***“[Darker My Love](https://cutt.ly/yWwHcmH)”***) to play guitar and produce, and ***Dan Allaire*** (***“[Brian Jonestown Massacre](https://cutt.ly/UWwHjfb)”***) to drum, while she played bass. ***[Tim Presley](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Presley)*** (***“White Fence and Darker My Love”***) and ***Tony Bevilaqua*** (***“[Spinnerette](https://cutt.ly/pWeumzk)”***) also helped out. > In 2012, ***Todd Wisenbaker*** joined the band, which at that time also included ***[Nate Lotz](https://cutt.ly/pWwJJYv)*** on drums and ***[Greta Morgan](https://cutt.ly/2WwJ1oD)*** on rhythm guitar. > >On ***“Sees the Light”***, ***Goodman*** takes a larger role, writing the music and playing bass as well as singing. She's helped out ***Barbato*** on guitar and production, and together they go for a sound that is less reverby and less early pop, more spunky and more punky. > Her voice is brought up higher in the mix throughout and she proves herself to be a capable vocalist, belting it out when she needs to (like on the heart-tugger ***"[Drive On](https://cutt.ly/1WwW6rp)"***), but mostly crooning sweetly and clearly. > > In almost every way, the album is an impressive leap forward for ***Goodman*** that shows she's more than ready to make ***“La Sera”*** her full-time musical outlet. > > So, it was not a big surprise when In early 2014, the ***“Vivian Girls”*** went their separate ways, leaving ***Goodman*** free to concentrate on her new band. # ***The Song Info*** ***“I Can't Keep You in My Mind”*** is the third song from ***“La Sera’s”*** second album ***“[Sees the light](https://cutt.ly/8WwQzaC)”***, released by ***“[Hardly Art](https://cutt.ly/UWwP5fM)”*** in the spring of 2012. # ***"La Sera" Info*** **[Hardly Art](https://cutt.ly/PWwRlgt)** **/** **[Wikipedia](https://cutt.ly/sWwmenF)** **/** **[AllMusic](AllMusic)** **/** **[Metacritic](https://cutt.ly/TWwIvQX)** **/** **[Pitchfork](https://cutt.ly/0WwENVw)** **/** **[Last.fm](https://cutt.ly/8WwE4wG)** **/** **[Bandcamp](https://cutt.ly/CWwmzct)** **/** **[Discogs](https://cutt.ly/EWwmcM7)** **/** **[Spotify](https://cutt.ly/LWwRCLW)** **/** **[YouTube](https://bit.ly/369SrzU)** **/** **[Grimy Goods](https://cutt.ly/tWwYncc)** **/** **[Itw. 1](https://cutt.ly/QWwUdVm)** **/** **[Itw. 2](https://cutt.ly/oWwUWyj)** **/** **[Itw. 3](https://cutt.ly/rWwUPSu)** **/** **[Lyrics ](https://cutt.ly/oWwYNzA)** # ***More "La Sera" Organizam Star Candy*** - ***La Sera - ["La Sera"](https://cutt.ly/kWwmCS1)*** - ***La Sera - ["Hour of the Down"](https://cutt.ly/tWwQYn7)*** # ***"Organizam Star" Recommendations*** - ***Vivian Girls - ["Vivian Girls"](https://cutt.ly/znxohwm)*** - ***Pixies - ["Bossanova"](https://cutt.ly/3nkm13V)*** - ***R.E.M. - ["Green"](https://cutt.ly/lmPI0Oo)*** - ***The Auteurs - ["Now I'm a Cowboy"](https://cutt.ly/ZnUgxFM)*** - ***Thin White Rope - ["Exploring the Axis"](https://cutt.ly/TmuruQv)*** *** # ***Complete [Organizam Star](https://organizamstar.wordpress.com/ "The Sound Of Who We Are") Archive!***
