Martha 2008 nina Franoszek

The new album "Right Where You Are", written in entirety by Nina Bradlin (with Kieran Kennedy and Michael Turtle), surpasses boundaries of genre to create a dynamic mix of styles which reflect the artist's diverse music passions and influences.

"I Know You're Married But I've Got Feelings Too" is the second full-length album of Canadian-American singer-songwriter Martha Wainwright. It was released in Australia on May 10, 2008 with other countries to follow. The 14-track album features 12 original tracks and cover versions of Pink Floyd's "See Emily Play". This album is as complex and emotionally tumultuous as its title and lays to rest any doubts regarding the reach of Martha's artistry.

A deep soul legend – back in action with a tremendous band to back her up! Martha High's probably best known for her classic recordings with James Brown, but this recent set proves that she's still very much at the top of her game – especially when getting such great support from the Shaolin Temple Defenders! The group themselves are an all-funky powerhouse – a really tremendous little combo with razor sharp instrumentation, and just the right production sound to keep a classic groove in place – a group who fill us with the same sort of raw excitement we got when first catching Desco and Soul Fire sides years back.

¿Qué pasa en la relación de pareja cuando los hijos, ya adultos, parten para iniciar una vida lejos de sus padres? Comienzan los reproches, la lasitud, los resentimientos, la intolerancia; como si los hijos se hubieran llevado el amor que hace tiempo cambió para convertirse en acostumbramiento. El nido vacío habla de eso y de mucho más.
