Three Women & the Truth: with guitars and stories to tell

Three esteemed singer/songwriters have teamed up for a tour — Three Women & the Truth — that will bring them to City Winery on September 29.

Mary Gauthier, Eliza Gilkyson, and Gretchen Peters have all had songs recorded by the top recording artists including Shania Twain, Joan Baetz, Etta James, Roseanne Cash and more. Two of them are GRAMMY-nominated and Gauthier’s latest album Trouble & Love has garnered praise from the LA Times, Wall Street Journal, NPR and more.

Billed as an evening of music and stories, the three told the Chicago Tribune we should anticipate an intimate evening among mutual admirers.

"I'm so future-oriented," said Peters, the writer of Martina McBride's "Independence Day" and inductee to the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. "I'm so not a person who spends time looking back at what I've done in the past. It was the best of all possible worlds to have my peers honor me (with the induction) at a time when I feel as artistically strong as ever."

"Older women get incredibly marginalized," added Gilkyson. "We really need to be modeling elder behavior as women and say, 'Hey, you're not supposed to be putting your head under a blanket once you're past 45.' Right now, that's what the culture is asking us to do."

Gauthier’s album Trouble & Love is an intensely personal album about heartbreak, but more importantly about transformation and survival.  The eight songs featured on the album were carefully chosen from about thirty that Gauthier wrote.  Each one tells a part of a very complete story, and especially hits home if you’ve ever been through the intensity of losing someone you’ve loved and grown attached to.

WhistlePig + Alfa Romeo F1

SHOREHAM, VT (September 13, 2023) — WhistlePig Whiskey, the leaders in independent craft whiskey, and Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake are waving the checkered flag on a legend-worthy release that’s taking whiskey to G-Force levels. The Limited Edition PiggyBack Legends Series: Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake Barrel is a high Rye Whiskey selected by the Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake drivers, with barrels trialed in their wind tunnel to ensure a thrilling taste in every sip.

The third iteration in WhistlePig’s Single Barrel PiggyBack Legends Series, the Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake Barrel is bottled at 96.77 proof, a nod to Valtteri Bottas’ racing number, 77, and the precision of racing. Inspired by Zhou Guanyu, the first Chinese F1 driver, this Rye Whiskey is finished with lychee and oolong tea. Herbal and floral notes of the oolong tea complement the herbaceous notes of WhistlePig’s signature PiggyBack 100% Rye, rounded out with a juicy tropical fruit finish and a touch of spice.

Nurse Practitioner Ari Kravitz

When I started medical transition at 20 years old, it was very difficult to get the care I needed for hormone replacement therapy because there are very few providers trained in starting hormones for trans people, even though it’s very similar to the hormones that we prescribe to women in menopause or cisgender men with low testosterone.

I hope more providers get trained in LGBTQ+ healthcare, so they can support patients along their individual gender journey, and provide the info needed to make informed decisions about their body. I’ve personally seen my trans patients find hope and experience a better quality of life through hormone replacement therapy.
