Following last year’s intimate sell-out concert at the venue, Mary Gauthier returns with violinist Michele Gazich to perform music featuring songs from the new album Rifles & Rosary Beads.
The heart-wrenching songs were written over four years at the Songwriting With Soldiers workshop, where Mary worked hand-in-hand with veterans to open up debate and awareness on an array of mental and physical health issues associated with being an ex-serviceman.
A Louisiana-native turned Nashville-resident, Mary Gauthier has had an extraordinary life. She was a teenage runaway who found her first shelter among addicts and drag queens, struggled with drug addiction and became a chef/owner of three restaurants in Boston before selling them in 2001 to become a full-time songwriter.
Mary’s songs have been praised by Bob Dylan and Tom Waits and recorded by Jimmy Buffett, Blake Shelton, Boy George, Tim McGraw and Candi Staton among others.
