ESPAÑOL

Para las siguientes entradas abordaremos algunos generos que no son tan populares pero que no dejan de presentar cosas interesantes. Asi que ahora les presento a Martha Wainwright con su disco I Know You're Married But I've Got Feelings Too.

Martha Wainwright (nacida el 8 de Mayo del 76) es una cantante y compositora de folk-rock, ella es Americo-canadiense y ademas es la hija del musico de Folk/blues Loudon Wainwright III y la cantante de folk Kate McGarrigle (como ven la musica la tiene en las venas). Junto a su hermano mayor, Rufus Wainwright (les suena?) fue criada en Montreal, en una casa con un ambiente totalmente lleno de musica que le sirvio para desarrollar su creatividad musical.

El estilo de Wainwright ha sido describido como una mezcla de Folk, rock, country y cantos Chanson (Chanson es un término francés, que en español se refiere a cualquier canción con letra en francés y, más específicamente, a piezas vocales de tema amoroso, y también a las de crítica social y política, en particular las pertenecientes al estilo de los cabarets. En este contexto se llama chansonnier al intérprete de canciones de carácter humorístico o satírico.) La inspiracion Folk viene naturalmente y sin esfuerzo minimo por que Wainwright nacio dentro de una familia de musicos de folk.

I Know You're Married But I've Got Feelings Too es su album mas reciente, cuenta con 14 canciones, 12 originales y covers de See Emily Play Original de Pink Floyd y Love Is a Stranger de The Eurythmics. La version que subi contiene un track extra que solo fue lanzado en la tienda I.tunes de Australia. DISFRUTEN!

ENGLISH

For the followin entrys we´ll talk about some genres that are not very popular but have very good records. So, in this ocassion I introduce you Martha Wainwright with her album I Know You're Married But I've Got Feelings Too.

Martha Wainwright (born May 8, 1976) is a Canadian-American folk-rock singer-songwriter. She is the daughter of American folk/blues musician Loudon Wainwright III and Canadian folk singer-songwriter Kate McGarrigle. Along with her older brother, Rufus Wainwright, Martha was raised in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, in a musically fueled household, an environment which helped nurture her musical creativity.

Wainwright's style has been described as a melding of folk, rock, country, and chanson singing. (A chanson is in general any lyric-driven French song, usually polyphonic and secular. A singer specializing in chansons is known as a "chanteur"; a collection of chansons, especially from the late Middle Ages and Renaissance, is also known as a chansonnier.) The folk inspirations comes naturally and inescapably to Wainwright, as she was born into a family of folk musicians.

I Know You're Married But I've Got Feelings Too her recent album, is a 14-track album features 12 original tracks and cover versions of Pink Floyd's "See Emily Play" and, as a bonus track in some countries, the Eurythmics' "Love is a Stranger". The version I uploaded has a extra track that was only released in the I-tunes store of Australia. ENJOY!
