Biography

“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 Times GRAMMY-Nominated Mary Gauthier has been called "a songwriter’s songwriter." She has released nine studio albums over her twenty-five-year music business career. She was named “One of Americana's most admired artists across the US and around the world” by The Wall Street Journal, who noted her “razor-sharp eye for detail and her commitment to unsentimental self-reflection.” A regular on The Grand Ole Opry, her songs have been recorded by Tim McGraw, Blake Shelton, Jimmy Buffett, Bettye Lavette, Bobby Bare, Kathy Mattea, Amy Helm and many others. Her eleventh album, the first record in over 8 years consisting of all her own songs, Dark Enough to See the Stars, follows the profound antidote to trauma, Rifles & Rosary Beads, her 2018 collaborative work with wounded Iraq war veterans. It garnered a Grammy nomination for Best Folk Album, as well as a nomination for Album of the Year by the Americana Music Association. Brandi Carlile has 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.” Her songs have appeared extensively in Film and Television, most recently on HBO TV’s "Yellowstone.”
