Thought I Heard a Train\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReckoning is a dense, carefully nuanced, profoundly complex text, though all nine songs are presented as directly as possible: Mary's voice, her guitar, bits of harmonica. Folk music, of a kind, but not a broadside. Nothing so easy as that. Topical songs with a long view, because she's seen and lived too much of it. Mary's most celebrated songs ” I Drink, Mercy Now, Drag Queens in Limousines ” are confessional stories, closely observed, clear-eyed and compassionate. She sings with the unmistakable languor of her native Louisiana, writes with the bluntness of Boston, where she was once a successful restauranteur, and rewrites with the fierce precision of Nashville, her home for many years. Her 2018 release, Rifles \u0026amp; Rosary Beads, co-written with wounded Iraq war veterans, received a Grammy nomination for Best Folk Album, and an Americana Music Association nomination for Album of the Year. During Covid she wrote and saw published (by MacMillan) Saved by a Song: The Art and Healing Power of Songwriting, part memoir, part reflection on songwriting, through the lens of her most impactful songs. A reckoning, Mary Gauthier writes on the outer sleeve to her newest album, can be personal, political, or spiritual. These songs inhabit all three realms at once.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Assai Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58361196446079,"sku":"ITB009","price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1565\/5653\/files\/183bd8c179a8419db11afe5e77d299a8.jpg?v=1788514495","url":"https:\/\/assai.co.uk\/products\/mary-gauthier-reckoning-vinyl-lp-due-out-25-09-26","provider":"Assai Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
