About

Rufus Wainright's mother, singer-songwriter Kate McGarrigle, brought him up listening to opera and jazz, as well as the folk-pop she was writing at home. His father, quirky folk songwriter Loudon Wainwright III, was infamous for his candid, autobiographical songs. Rufus's amalgamated influences made way for the almost vaudevillian and often autobiographical baroque pop presented here.
