Between Daylight and Dark
Date undefinedFolk music is my thing from indie, to traditional and even the more modern. But Mary is a classic... a bit Dylanesque in her delivery; her lyrics paints pictures vividly of love and love lost. The soulful sound radiates such feeling. In a few words, the story is all there. Love this even more than Mercy Now. Other new artists I put up there with Mary are Martha Berner and Arrica Rose ... probably with a more contemporary but similar vibe.

Date undefinedMary Gauthier is original, not a copy or derivative. She is also a poet, whose lyrics are spare and concise in the style of Hemingway. She draws pictures with words. Her music is simple, complimenting her lyrics, and her delivery is subtle and expressive. Most of her songs tell stories, nearly all of them sad and painful, with depth and honesty.

Date undefinedI first heard the song "The Last of the Hobo Kings" on a college radio station in my car. As soon as I got home, I looked it up and bought this CD.
The song carries you through the kind of story everyone wants to be a part of. Other songs on this CD tell stories too. Theres a song that makes you really think about New Orleans, it's surrounding areas, and Hurricane Katrina. Mary Gauthier is from Baton Rouge, and you can hear the emotion in this song. It's very easy to relate to the songs on this CD, I think it's great.
