About Martha Wainwright

Martha Wainwright is a beguiling and refreshing folk-rock singer-songwriter. She was born on May 8, 1976, in New York City to folk legends Kate McGarrigle and Loudon Wainwright III and was raised in a sea of music.
With an undeniable voice and an arsenal of powerful songs, Martha began building a buzz with her well-noted EPs, prior to her 2005 critically and commercially successful debut LP, Martha Wainwright. London’s Sunday Times included the song, “Bloody Mother Fucking Asshole” in their songs of the year and Rolling Stone called it “a blistering prelude to her debut album.”

In 2008, Martha followed with her sophomore album, I Know You’re Married But I’ve Got Feelings Too which showed her great musical maturity and talent as a songwriter. In 2010 she toured the world promoting her third album, San Fusils, Ni Souliers A Paris: Martha Wainwright’s Piaf Album. This extraordinary album, an homage to the great Edith Piaf, was received with glowing reviews, leaving audiences stunned by Martha’s incredible range and talent. Come Home To Mama, produced by Cibo Matto’s Yuka Honda in 2012, was heralded by Mojo Magazine as a “substantial and brilliantly sung career best.”

Four years later, Goodnight City is poised to be her best record yet. This album returns to the rawness of her first release and includes songs by Martha, as well as songs written by notable artists to highlight her incredible voice. These songs are written by her friends and other great songwriters such as Beth Orton, Glen Hansard, her brother Rufus Wainwright, Michael Ondaatje, and Merrill Garbus of tUnE-yArDs.

Martha tours her music around the world to sold-out audiences on several continents. She has spent time on the silver screen playing characters in Martin Scorsese’s “Aviator” and more recently in the HBO special “Olive Kitteridge” alongside Frances McDormand.
On August 28, 2018, Martha published a memoir titled “Stories I Might Regret Telling You” which, like her songs, is a window into her life without artifice, pretension, or fakery.
