Brother Rufus helps on “In The Middle Of The Night”, mum Kate McGarrigle, aunt Anna McGarrigle and cousin Lily Lanken all feature on Wainwright’s cover of Pink Floyd‘s “See Emily Play.”

Wainwright says of the new album: “The title sums up my dark humour. Plus it’s an homage to a few good men and women that I’ve loved at one time or another. After all, these people never go away. You end up loving them for life.”

Martha Wainwright is set to play some shows in the UK in May, backed by her full band. Catch them at:
