REASONS TO GO SEE

1 Music is in the blood It anyone was ever destined to write songs. it's Martha. YOunger Sister to Rufus and the daughter of Loudon Wainwright Ill and Canadian folk Singer Kate McGarrigle. \«N’ainwright's childhood was steeped in folk. cOuntry and the best Singer songwriters around.

2 They fuck you up, your mum and dad You can choose your friends. but you can't choose your family. Wainwright's parents had a meSSy split when she was y0ung. and kept writing songs about each other. and about the kids. Wainwright's eponymous debut album is full of ripostes. snarling and vitriolic little nuggets of totky pop genius.

3 She’s a sweary Mary See above the stand-out track on the aforementioned album is the wonderful, heartbreakingly overblown 'Bloody Motherfucking Asshole'. a song she wrote for her lather. Christmas and Thanksgiving must be a hoot round the Wainwrights. eh?

4 What a voice Like a very angry Kate Bush, or BjOrk with a pole up her ass. Wainwright Sings like a woman possessed. yet has the subtlety and depth of range to pull off just about anything she tries vocally.

5 She’s a Scot at heart OK. she's not. but she does a great version of the Robert L0uis Stevenson poern 'Whither Must I Wander' to a tune written by Vaughan Williams. I
