Mary Gauthier
Sweet finger picking, and always contemplative lyrics.
From New Orleans to Boston, then taking a curvy track into music, Mary Gauthier's life has been a sleek ride on a fast train. Picking up a guitar and putting down words to help reset her inner turmoil, she creates stories to help her "sort out confusion, untangle powerful emotions, and ward off desperation." Through the pain and dark storms come reflections on the tender aspects of our humanness. With a grainy voice reminiscent of John Prine's eloquence and pacing, she sings open-heartedly about love, and opening her heart to "navigate the powerful emotional weather systems of life.”
