Although Martha Wainwright belongs to one of the most distinguished families in popular music---Loudon Wainwright III and Kate McGarrigle are her parents, Rufus Wainwright her brother---her talent alone justifies the attention paid her. She is an intrepid performer in the adventurous vanguard of the singer-songwriter genre. Alternately fierce, poignant, volatile and tender, Wainwright is "...an artist of considerable depth and vision" (All Music Guide).
