Trouble and Love

I have been following americana, roots, and alt. country for awhile, but Mary did not hit my radar screen until a year or so ago. Once I found her, I was hooked. Similar to Lucinda, but she grabs me and won’t let me go.

Who among us hasn’t experienced love and trouble? Mary Gautier’s songs tell of so many of the nuanced experiences involved, you can’t help but identify with one or more of them. And then you don’t feel alone. You feel lighter. And if you’re one of the lucky ones who can’t identify with a thing in these songs, you’ll still enjoy hearing about how love can go wrong. You’ll know you dodged the trouble in love. As you can see I’ve become a huge fan of Mary Gautier.
