Last year, former Vivian Girl Katy Goodman brought back her La Sera moniker for Hour of the Dawn. Today, she's announced the latest chapter in that project: Music for Listening to Music To, a full-length LP due out next March on Polyvinyl. Ryan Adams produced the new record, as Rolling Stone reports. The album was recorded last spring at Adams' Pax-Am studio.
According to Adams, his work with Goodman and company in the studio eventually inspired his Taylor Swift cover album 1989. "If it wasn't for [Music for Listening to Music To], the 1989 record would have never happened," he told Rolling Stone.
Following their initial meeting on the first day of recording, Adams and La Sera's Todd Wisenbaker and Nate Lotz would eventually team up for 1989. "As soon as that record was done," Adams told Rolling Stone, "I was like, 'I have to go on the road for a minute, but as soon as I'm back, let's make something. Let's just jam.'"
Wisenbaker said:
We did three songs that first night, just loosely jamming, and [Ryan] tweeted about it, and it went berserko. The next day we're like, 'Oh, God, we actually have to do this.' Not that we wouldn't have done it well before, but actually, people are going to hear this.
Recently, Goodman and Wisenbaker were married. He's listed as an official collaborator and vocalist on Music for Listening to Music To, after previously producing and playing guitar on Hour of the Dawn.
