MARTHA Vinyl Records and CDs
|
Martha Wainwright is the daughter of singer-songwriter Loudon Wainwright III and folk singer Kate McGarrigle, whose turbulent family and eventual divorce was exposed to the world in songs like "Pretty Little Martha" and "Father-Daughter Dialogue." In 2002 at the age 25, after abandoning her pursuit of a career in the theater, Martha released her first EP Factory having honed her vocal technique as a backup singer on tour with brother Rufus. In February 2005, she released a second EP closely followed by her impressive full-length debut Martha Wainwright, a confessional album filled with shimmering songs of loneliness and grit. Comparisons to her father's work are unavoidable. "There's no argument that it sounds like one of [my father's] songs," says Wainwright about the title track of her February 2005 EP Bloody Mother Fucking Asshole. "Subconsciously it might be me trying to get his attention or gain his respect. That's what the song's about. So why not use his medium?
