Martha Wainwright, born on May 8th, 1976 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, is a talented artist and musician. She comes from a musical family with her father being Loudon Wainwright III and her mother being Kate McGarrigle. Martha's siblings include Rufus Wainwright and half-sister Lucy Wainwright Roche. With her impressive vocals and songwriting skills, Martha has appeared on various recordings by her family members. She has also released several independent EPs throughout her career.
In 2005, Martha released her full-length self-titled album which quickly gained recognition as it debuted at number eighteen on the Canadian album sales charts. Her music showcases a unique blend of folk and rock influences combined with heartfelt lyrics that resonate with listeners.
Beyond her musical achievements, Martha married producer and bassist Brad Albetta in September 2007; however, they divorced in 2018. As the granddaughter of Anna McGarrigle and niece of musicians such as Rufus Wainwright and Sloan Wainwright among others, Martha continues to carry forward the legacy of her talented family through her own remarkable contributions to the music industry.

Martha Wainwright is beginning again. The beguiling performer and songwriter makes a most welcome return with Love Will Be Reborn, her first new album in five years. It’s her first album since 2016’s Goodnight City, and the first since 2012’s acclaimed Come Home To Mama to feature so much original material.

All eleven songs on Love Will Be Reborn are written by Martha. She wrote the first song, and what would become the title track, a few years ago in what was a very dark time for her personally. The title track hints at the ache of recent years while capturing a sense of optimism for the future. She wraps her wondrous, trademark vocals around the heartbreak to dizzying effect. “I wrote the song in its entirety within ten or fifteen minutes,” she admits. ”I was bawling”. Martha began to play the song live before she recorded the album and it became something of an anthem, giving her hope when it was most needed. The song, and the entire album, was produced by Pierre Marchand, best known for his work with Rufus Wainwright on Poses, the McGarrigle’s on Heartbeats Accelerating and much of Sarah McLaughlin’s 90’s catalogue.

Recorded in Martha’s Montreal hometown, the album was made in the basement of café Ursa which also served as a studio and at PM Studios. Martha plays guitar and piano and enlisted the help of Toronto musicians Thom Gill (guitars, keys, back-ups) Phil Melanson (drums, percussion) and Josh Cole (bass). Pierre Marchand plays keyboards on Love Will Be Reborn plus two other tracks while Morgan Moore plays bass on several songs.

Available on Lucky Dip Marbled vinyl (limited copies only), Black vinyl and CD.
