La
Sera, the solo project of Vivian Girls bassist “Kickball Katy” Goodman, opened
for Father John Misty (aka J. Tillman) at Lincoln Hall on the eve of
Halloween.
After releasing two albums on Sub Pop's sister label Hardly Art, Goodman developed a confidence that has added luster to her live presence. Not only can she actually play
her instruments-- namely the bass, but also the guitar and, thumbing
illustrious riffs-- Goodman can captivate an audience with a shake and swing of her hips.
The band played a few tracks from their debut
self-titled release but mostly stuck to hits from their latest album, Sees
The Light, ending with the featured track called “Love That’s Gone.” And like that “Kickball Katy” vanished off
stage leaving a fleet of beating hearts fluttering with wonder.
Jeffertitti's Nile, aka Jeffertitti's Moon, aka Father John Misty's bassist opened the show.
