Martha Wainwright Sets ‘Come Home to Mama’ Release For October
‘Come Home to Mama’ is scheduled to hit the shelves on October 15th.
Martha Wainwright has announced plans to release a new full length record entitiled ‘Come Home to Mama’ this year.
‘Come Home to Mama’ is scheduled to hit the shelves on October 15th via V2 Records.
The LP was written and produced by Martha and Yuka C Honda, respectively and recorded in New York earlier this year, with the main bulk of the recording taking place at Sean Lennon’s home studio.
“Making this record was a totally different experience,” Martha says of the new project. “Yuka’s approach was very open. Sometimes I would just demo the song, singing in the closet which served as the vocal booth, then she would build the track around that. In other instances we would jam with a few musicians and try to get a live take.
“This record is a culmination of my life experiences so far. Everything changed for me a couple years ago and this record is a representation of that and a return to the reason I started writing songs,” she adds. “I can’t wait to hit the road with my family and new band in tow.”
Tracklisting is set to look something like this:
I Am Sorry
Can You Believe It
Radio Star
Proserpina
Leave Behind
Four Black Sheep
Some People
I Wanna Make An Arrest
All Your Clothes ‘
Everything Wrong

Martha Wainwright - Bleeding All Over You
4 Stars
<b>Wainwright’s</b> voice is almost like a plaintiff plea, but at the heart of the song is courage, and a desire for emotions to be recognised and valued.
