MARY GAUTHIER - lokatie: Amstelkerk, Amsterdam

Paradiso presenteert Mary Gauthier in de Amstelkerk. Adres: Amstelveld 10, Amsterdam.

Op 18 mei verschijnt ‘The Foundling’ het nieuwe album van Mary Gauthier. Een album waarop Gauthier haar turbulente levensverhaal in indrukwekkend ontroerende songs heeft gevat: “I was born to an unwed mother in 1962 and subsequently surrendered to St. Vincent's Women and Infants Asylum on Magazine Street in New Orleans, where I spent my first year. I was adopted shortly thereafter but left my adopted family at fifteen. I wandered for years looking for, but never quite finding a place that felt like home. I searched for, found, and was denied a meeting with my birth mother when I was 45 years old. She couldn't afford to re-open the wound she'd carried her whole life, the wound of surrendering a baby. The Foundling is my story.”

Mary Gauthier - zang en gitaar, Tania Elizabeth - fiddle.
