She&#8217;s been in the music business for nearly twenty years and finds creativity in the dark aspects of life, through which she&#8217;s able to come up with a melancholy vibe, while at the same time not becoming too cynical.

She started performing her own work at 17, and released her first record in 2000. Mary&#8217;s sound combines elements of 90s grunge with electronic, indie, grim, and pop. Mary has released six full albums, as well as EPs and other projects. The singer also owns a yoga studio where she teaches about mindfulness.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The video for &#8216;The Shit I Left In Duluth&#8217; came about as a dare: her friends were sitting in a bar and decided to challenge themselves to write a song which included the phrase in the lyrics. Sadly for Mary the song became a self-fulfilling prophecy when she and her husband divorced after the track was produced. The video, directed by Jon Hain, highlights the underlying dark themes while adding a nostalgic yet dreamy vision; it showcases how Mary feels &#8211; that she feels like she&#8217;s in the clouds. Transitioning between different shots of Mary performing, driving, and running in a field, the clip closes with her gazing into the sky as the background envelops her.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Find out more about Mary Bue online on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/marybuemusic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/marybuemusic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/marybuemusic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/mary-bue\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Soundcloud<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/marybuemusic.tumblr.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tumblr<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/maryebue\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTube<\/a>, as well as her <a href=\"http:\/\/marybue.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_91178\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mCMACJXHuBQ?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"Mary Bue - The Shit I Left In Duluth - Official Music Video\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/mCMACJXHuBQ\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mary Bue was originally from Princeton Minnesota, and is now based in Minneapolis.
