We all know what to expect from Mary Gauthier – do we not? Intensity, savvy anger, grit. Well, prepare to be as surprised as Gauthier herself who has this to say about ‘Fall Apart World‘ : “I love the joy in this track, the unapologetic playful, upbeat vibe, I’ve never really done that before in a song. I didn’t know how. It took me a long time to get young! A whole new world has opened up to me. Barefoot under blue skies, honeybee’s, butterflies, yea, yea…ain’t nothing wrong with a straight up happy song!” And that’s surely the truth – if this doesn’t get you smiling then, dear reader, you’re a curmudgeon.
This little serving of joy, which was co-written with Ben Glover, comes from the new album ‘Dark Enough To See The Stars‘, which is out on June 3rd via Thirty Tigers.
