Martha Wainwright

New  Album Love Will Be Reborn

out August 20th

10-Date UK Tour This September

Second Union Chapel Show Added Due To High Demand

New Track ‘Hole In My Heart’ Out Now

With the release of her highly-anticipated and first new album in five years, Love Will Be Reborn, out this Friday, Martha Wainwright has announced a second show at London’s Union Chapel on 21st September due to huge demand. Tickets for the show are on-sale HERE.

Earlier this month Martha offered another sneak peek of the new album, ‘Hole In My Heart’, a playful song that’s brimming with joy. The song serves as the emotional flip side to previous song ‘Falaise de Malaise’, a song steeped in despair and sadness, the storm to the sunshine that is ‘Hole In My Heart.’

The video captures this joy – watch it here.

Like most records this year, Love Will Be Reborn was made during the global pandemic and recorded in Martha’s hometown of Montreal, in the basement of her brand-new cafe, Ursa, which also served as a studio. Enlisting the help of Toronto musicians Thom Gill, Phil Melanson, Morgan Moore and Josh Cole and producer Pierre Marchand, best-known for his collaborations with Sarah McLachlan producing some of her iconic 90s songs. Marchand also has a familial connection to Martha, having produced her brother Rufus’s second album Poses as well as Martha’s Mother and Aunt’s record, Heartbeats Accelerating. It was a record made after some time, much like Martha’s gap since 2016’s Goodnight City, and McGarrigle was the same age that Martha is now. It seems like a musical synergy only the late McGarrigle and Martha could have.Martha will embark on an Autumn UK tour this year which include two highly anticipated shows at London’s Union Chapel on September 20th and 21st.
