Translucent Ruby Red Vinyl Reissue
Mary Gauthier is a Grammy-nominated American country-folk singer-songwriter and author, whose songs often deal with marginalization, informed by her experience of adoption, addiction and recovery, and growing up Queer in the deep south. Her work demonstrates an ability to transform her own trauma into a purposeful and communal narrative.
25 years ago, this record sprang on the scene— a record holding a voice impossible to draw comparison to, and lyrics and stories alien to anything that resonated from The Opry’s stage beforehand. Mary was the first openly queer person to play The Opry, and for us at KRS, this record encapsulates things new, exciting, bold, while being an absolute standout to what the realm of Americana has to offer. This is an authentic American experience, cliches weren’t needed.
With a voice that cannot be compared to any other, and lyrics and stories with a realism that only she can express, this album is bold, exciting, and always piercing. Mary is a legend in music and the Queer community.
