Martha Wainwright was born into a small kingdom of musical talent.
Her mother, Kate McGarrigle, and her aunt, Anna, form one of Canada's
most beloved folksinging duos. Her father, Loudon Wainwright III,
is a legendary American folk and blues singer/songwriter. Her brother, Rufus,
is a driven singer/songwriter who has explored pop and jazz genres and achieved
several commercial hits. With that kind of talent surrounding her,
it would seem some of it would rub off. But for Martha, it rubbed off
in a unique and fierce way. Andrew Pain of the U.K.'s Middlesbrough
Evening Gazette described Wainwright's version of the singer/songwriter
as completely different from the standard definition, commenting that
"she doesn't trade alongside them … Back with a second record that's
both tender and tough, beautiful and brutal, and simmering with invention
and confidence, Martha forgot to read the rulebook.
