15 years ago today (February 15th, 2005) we released "Mercy Now." The title track, "Mercy Now,” was named "One of The Saddest 40 Country Songs of All Time" by Rolling Stone Magazine in 2014, and continues to be my most streamed and requested song.
"Mercy Now" has been covered by Kathy Mattea, Bobby Bare, Candi Staton, and Mike Farris, whose album "Shine for All the People" won a GRAMMY for Best Roots Gospel Album in 2015.
In 2005, "Mercy Now" was on the top 10 lists for The New York Times, LA Times, The Daily News and Billboard Magazine. In the same year, No Depression Magazine voted "Mercy Now" as the #6 Record of the Decade.
Thank you for all of your support for this record! "Mercy Now" is available to stream at marygauthier.com/music or for purchase at marygauthier.com/store.
"An album overflowing with beauty, raw emotion and unflinching honesty which established Mary as one of today’s pre-eminent songwriters and earned overwhelming critical acclaim." - www.marygauthier.com
