In Concert: Mary Gauthier with special guest Jaimee Harris

Roots & Shoots Concerts Series presents Grammy-nominated folk singer-songwriter and author Mary Gauthier (with special guest Jaimee Harris). Gauthier’s discography includes a dozen studio albums and her songs have been covered by artists ranging from Tim McGraw, Blake Shelton, and Kathy Mattea to Boy George, Jimmy Buffett, and Bettye Lavette. Her songs often deal with marginalization, informed by her experience of adoption, addiction and recovery, and growing up gay in the deep south.

NPR Music proclaimed that Texas-born singer-songwriter Harris, who turned 30 during the pandemic, is “poised to become the next queen of Americana-Folk.” Her latest album, Boomerang Town is an ambitious song-cycle that explores the generational arc of family, the stranglehold of addiction, and the fragile ties that bind Americans together.
