“This album brings out the edgier sound that comes across in a live performance with an alt country flair. I’ve drawn on the strong parallels between my love for folk and rock. Artists such as Ryan Adams, Patty Griffin, Tom Petty and Lucinda Williams all inspire me, and have affected areas of this album and my performance. I’m trying something new this time, I said good bye to the “nice girl” and I’m beginning to realize that sometimes the attitude is more appealing – this album is the most real expression of who I am and where I’ve been.” – Mary
