Background notes
Archive material and source history
Wainwright Loudon grew up in Montreal with parents who were both musicians. His father was folk singer Loudon Wainwright III, and his mother was singer-songwriter Kate McGarrigle. That background shows up in his own music, which tends to be personal and direct.
He put out his first album, 'Triumph Over Tragedy,' in 2002. Later records like 'Want One' and 'Fox Confessor Brings the Flood' kept working with similar themes. Songs like 'A Father and a Son' and 'Bein' a Dad' reflect some of that family material.
In 2007 he released 'Suddenly It's Christmas,' a holiday album that included the title track. That song has stuck around as a seasonal favorite. Other tracks in his catalog, such as 'A Hard Day On The Planet' and 'Breakfast in Bed,' continue in that vein of straightforward, lyric-focused writing.
