Plenty Of Trouble And Love For Mary Gauthier

Our area is in for a treat when singer-songwriter Mary Gauthier comes to The Egg in Albany on March 27, part of a spring tour behind her latest album, Trouble & Love. She has seen plenty of both: an orphan and teenage runaway, former addict and alcoholic, and restaurateur, Gauthier got a late start as a musician. She didn’t write her first song until her mid-30s, but is now one of our most critically beloved artists.

Her unique background has translated into some 10 albums. Her latest features eight songs recorded in Nashville.
