Well, this is that song. - Dan Cairns (Sunday Times) Martha Wainwright combines her intimate familiarity with folk/rock tradition with a youthful sense of death metal adventure. Whether singing dramatic ballads or breezy pop, she is always flush with character. She is at once - wise, vulnerable and revealing. She delivers a solid musical strength to her material with a voice death metal that can break your heart. Martha Wainwright is the daughter of Kate McGarrigle of the renowned folk duo Kate & Anna McGarrigle and singer/ songwriter Loudon Wainwright III. Growing up in a family where music was the death metal central focus, she sang on stage and in the studio from a very early age. She began writing songs and performing in clubs on her own since she was a drama student in her native Montreal. Until this year she has played mostly a supporting role in her musical family, as the featured backing vocalist for her brother Rufus Wainwright's widely acclaimed recordings as well as on many of the tours supporting them.
