Biography Mary Lambert - based singer-songwriter and spoken word artist

Mary Lambert (born May 3, 1989) is a Seattle-based singer-songwriter and spoken word artist. She worked with Macklemore & Ryan Lewis on a track on their album The Heist. Lambert is the featured singer and songwriter of their gay rights single,[1] "Same Love". Lambert wrote the chorus' hook in two hours. The "Same Love" chorus draws on Lambert's experiences as a lesbian growing up in a tumultuous, Christian upbringing. The repeating line, "Not crying on Sundays," for example, echoes the way she felt after leaving Sunday services in the Evangelical church.[2]

Lambert took the content she created for "Same Love" and used it to develop the song "She Keeps Me Warm" which she released on July 30, 2013. A music video was released on Vevo on August 24th.

Lambert's songs, often emotionally charged, have been considered a mix of Adele, Tori Amos and James Blake.[3][4] Her shows are described as "safe spaces where crying is acceptable and even encouraged."[2] Her debut EP, Letters Don't Talk, was released on July 17, 2012, and peaked at number 18 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter charts.[5] On December 17, 2013, Lambert released her second EP, Welcome to the Age of My Body, under Capitol Records
