Event Description
“With songwriting as powerful as hers, there’s no need to go looking for qualifiers. She’s a unique, intrinsically valuable musical voice. And there’s never a surplus of those.” — Randy Lewis, Los Angeles Time
Grammy nominee, singer-songwriter, author - An evening with Mary Gauthier.
Gauthier’s 11th album ‘Dark Enough to See the Stars’ is her first record in over eight years, consisting of all her own songs. It follows the profound antidote to album addressing trauma, ‘Rifles & Rosary Beads’, her 2018 collaborative work with wounded Iraq war veterans. This album garnered a Grammy nomination for Best Folk Album, as well as a nomination for Album of the Year by the Americana Music Association.
Publication of her first book in 2021, the illuminating ‘Saved by a Song: The Art and Healing Power of Songwriting’, brought her more praise. Brandi Carlile said, “Mary’s songwriting speaks to the tender aspects of our humanness. We need her voice in times like these more than we ever have.” The Associated Press called Gauthier “one of the best songwriters of her generation.”
Mary’s songs have been recorded by dozens of artists, including Jimmy Buffett, Dolly Parton, Boy George, Blake Shelton, Tim McGraw, Bettye Lavette, Mike Farris, Kathy Mattea, Bobby Bare, Amy Helm and Candi Staton and have appeared extensively in Film and Television, most recently on HBO TV’s Yellowstone.
Join us for an intimate evening of stories and song.
