Biography

Singer-songwriters are meant to trade in whimsical pleasures, in the soft strums of a guitar, in worlds so delicate and small they could shatter at a single touch. Martha Wainwright doesn't trade alongside them. Back with a second record that's both tender and tough, beautiful and brutal, and simmering with invention and confidence, Martha forgot to read the rulebook. Either that, or she set all… Read more in Amazon's Martha Wainwright Store

Editorial Reviews

Deluxe two disc (CD + PAL/Region 0 DVD) pressing including a bonus DVD that features footage from the performance. . Subtitled: Martha Wainwright's Piaf Record. 2009 album from the talented singer/songwriter (and sister of Rufus), a tribute to the great French vocalist Edith Piaf. Recorded live over the course three nights in New York, Sans Fusils, Ni Souliers, A Paris features 15 Piaf songs chosen from more than 300 that Wainwright researched via friend Hal Wilner. Wainwright called upon some of the best "downtown" NY musicians and worked to keep the quirky twists of Piaf's original productions while adding some bold new strokes. The result is a daring, powerful and personal work that - while not for every palate - challenges and then rewards.

5.0 out of 5 stars She's not Piaf, and doesn't try to be. The good news: She's her own woman, and that's what counts, December 1, 2009
This review is from: Sans Fusils, Ni Souliers, A Paris... (Audio CD)
It was the last benefit of the summer in the Hamptons. Rufus Wainwright and Norah Jones were the headliners. Martha Wainwright -- sister of Rufus, a comparative unknown --- was the opening act. As she came on stage, the audience was checking its make-up, texting, drinking, chatting. Talk about your uphill swim! Martha Wainwright began singing --- in French --- an Edith Piaf song from her unreleased CD. The talking continued. She put a fist in the air, lost in the world of France's most celebrated singer. In another minute, she had the attention of those inattentive Hamptonites. In ten, she pretty much owned them. The CD and DVD will explain why.
