The ex-Vivian Girl's stunning third album!As LA SERA, Katy Goodman turned a broken heart into two magnificent breakup albums: La Sera in 2011 and Sees The Light in 2012. On her new album, the ex-Vivian Girl is done crying. Hour Of The Dawn marks Goodman's awakening: "I wanted the new LA SERA record to sound like Lesley Gore meets Black Flag," she explains. "I didn't want to make another sad album, alone in my room. I wanted to have fun playing and writing songs with a band." To support her agile bass lines and enchanting voice, Goodman formed a new band around guitarist Todd Wisenbaker. So Goodman's melodies and lyrics are found on rock songs with new energy.
