She stood on the capital steps in Atlanta, GA and played her two songs against paternity fraud in front of a local and national audience.A review of her first album, “Mary Thornton: Rottweiler Bluesâ€, in Blues Revue Magazine (Jan-Feb ’99) compared her voice to Koko Taylor and Lou Ann Barton. Singing in the church choir in her early years, Mary knew she wanted to also play guitar. She finally got her first guitar when she was twelve and taught herself to play by sitting for hours with a “Mel Bay Instructional Guide†book. She honed her skill by practicing and watching others play. It wasn’t easy for a left-handed person to learn to play right-handed, but she persevered.Mary has performed in Bars, Clubs, Festivals, Private Parties and Benefits throughout Florida, Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina. Her release, ‘Distant Star†is Mary's second recording and is on sale now on the internet at Cdbaby.com as well as most online music stores and features her “effortless†vocal style on original material that comes straight from her heart, and her life.
