The world first discovered Mindy Smith in 2004 with the release of her debut, One Moment More featuring the hit single "Come To Jesus" which inspired critics and artists to sing her praises. She has been featured on NPR, performed on The Tonight Show, Conan O'Brien, GAC/Edge of Country and CMT. Her songs have been heard on shows such as "Grey's Anatomy," "Smallville," "Six Feet Under", and Fox's "So You Think You Can Dance." Entertainment Weekly raved "Like Patty Griffin, Smith is a deft songwriter straddling folk, country and pop, with a lovely girl-woman soprano that feels like cotton sheeting after a bath." With her fourth release, Stupid Love on Vanguard Records, Mindy takes another step forward both lyrically and musically.

If there were no story to tell about this remarkable artist, if there were nothing but the music that haunts every track on Mercy Now, that alone would make the case for Mary Gauthier as one of the most challenging performers to rise up from the underground in a long, long time.

"Between Daylight and Dark moves her closer to songwriters like John Prine... There's no clutter in these songs, but a wealth of implication." - New York Times "...Gauthier's songs startle with authority and detail. If she keeps this up, one day she may assume the mantle of Johnny Cash..." - New York Daily News
