(PR) On September 18, Lost Highway will release Between Daylight And Dark, the new album from critically-acclaimed singer/songwriter Mary Gauthier, of whom Entertainment Weekly says, �The beauty of Gauthier�s country noir lies in the humanity of her characters, and in the sweet yearning of her gruff Louisiana drawl.�

Between Daylight And Dark is Gauthier�s fifth album and the follow up to her 2005 breakthrough Mercy Now, which garnered high praise in the media. Gauthier was named 2005 NEW/EMERGING ARTIST OF THE YEAR by the Americana Music Association.

Gauthier�s continuing evolution as a songwriter is evident throughout the 10 songs that comprise Between Daylight And Dark. �I�ve matured � and my writing has matured,� she says, �Mercy Now was as close as I�d ever come to capturing the voices in my head and bringing them to life, but with these new songs, while I still insert myself into each one, they have become much less autobiographical and more observational.�

Between Daylight And Dark was cut live, with minimal overdubs, and produced by Joe Henry. The album features guest appearances by Van Dyke Parks (piano on �Can�t Find The Way�) and Loudon Wainwright (backing vocals on �Soft Place To Land� and �I Ain�t Leaving�).
