New York-born, Montreal-raised singer-songwriter Martha Wainwright is a powerful, deeply original talent. Blessed with a hugely expressive voice and captivating stage presence, Martha has matured artistically before the world’s eyes and ears.
Daughter of revered folk legends Kate McGarrigle and Loudon Wainwright III, and sister of celebrated vocalist and composer Rufus Wainwright, Martha grew up on stages with her family and wrote original songs from the time she was a teen. Recording music that is both intimate and daring, Martha has since established herself as one of the most gutsy guitar-slinging talents.
