only a small little thing

From the flat of my friend's in the middle of babysitting, and avoiding other things I should be doing..... I found this youtube interview with a few people including Martha from the Festival d'ete de Quebec here

check this out!

Check out this interview on WNYC recorded today with Martha and Rufus, about Kate....

Back! With a few goodies that you may or may not have seen....

Decided things seem to be less hectic than they were and it is the least I can do to still upload the things I find/see somewhere else.... Apologies for going away as such- but just didn't want you to think I would have updated info here when I didn't. On reflection I don't think it would have taken so long to keep up to date! Anyway, all that said, here we go:

So- you have prob already seen these things already, but just in case:

Martha Wainwright.com has this link to a rather large article in this month's 'Elle" magazine.

There seem to be quite a few pics of this event about, but I think this one has the most comprehensive selection, with Martha featuring a lot in them here: SAKS FIFTH AVENUE Celebrates the Launch of COSTUME NATIONAL

Also, there is a Kate McGarrigle documentary that will hopefully take place if the family get enough finds together. It will contain performances from the upcoming NY tribute concerts. Here is an article from CBC and there is more info, including about how to donate here on Rufus' website. (Phew took a while to find that link.)

You might also like to know that a new Kate and Anna McGarrigle Box set called 'Tell My Sister' is going on sale. It will include their first two albums as well as an album of previously unreleased demos. Here is a link to the McGarrigle website, explaining more about the release on Nonesuch records, May 3rd.

old but new to me

and thanks to the person who found it!

promo in french for the concert Martha did in Lyon

a few bits and bobs as sort of always....

there is an article in French about the Piaf gig in France last night here (anyone who can translate it, please feel free- i think i can make out a couple of sentences but not really properly- there is a pic at least for those like me who can not!)

and this looks interesting, but have not read it yet.... it is an interview with Martha from The Telegraph- i read the beginning and it says that it is the day before the Meltdown concert, which is strange that it is only appearing now... missed the actual paper i am guessing as it would have been today and today i was travelling home from being away!

ok by the time i have posted this i have read it.....

seems similar to this one: here think there may be some misquoting and stirring going on here, but you are all adults (i guess) and so can make up your own minds.... (i am also thinking it was a hard time to have an interview- while rehearsing for the concert......

there are pics from the Amsterdam show here and videos here
