Santa Monica, California, September
27, 2004 - Singer/songwriter Rufus Wainwright, called an
"as-yet unheralded American treasure" by Sir Elton John,
is set to release "Want Two," his new DreamWorks/Geffen
CD and fourth of his career.
The package also
includes an extensive 20-track DVD feature. "Want Two"
arrives in stores November 16. The 12-track CD comes on
the heels of Wainwright's acclaimed "Want One" from
2003. The new one continues the themes explored on the
previous recording, though Wainwright has said "Want
Two" contains "the more daunting tracks, the operatic,
weird stuff, some heavy numbers that relate to my
classical sensibilities."
The new CD was largely
recorded during the same sessions as the first, and
features the same creative team Wainwright used for
"Want One." That includes producer Marius deVries
(Björk, Madonna, David Bowie) and guest performers
Charlie Sexton and Gerry Leonard; drummers Levon Helm,
Matt Johnson and Sterling Campbell; bassists Jeff Hill
and Bernard O'Neill; and Backing vocalists Martha
Wainwright (Rufus' sister), Jenny Muldaur, Linda
Thompson and Teddy Thompson. Folk legend Kate
McGarrigle, Wainwright's mother, plays banjo, while his
aunt Anna McGarrigle plays accordion.
Tracks
include "Hometown Waltz," "Little Sister," "The One You
Love," "Old Whore's Diet," "Memphis Skyline," "Peach
Trees," "Agnus Dei," "Crumb By Crumb," "Gay Messiah,"
"The Art Teacher," "Waiting For A Dream," and "This Love
Affair."
The DVD includes performances filmed at
a live concert at San Francisco's historic Fillmore
Auditorium, and includes songs from both "Want One" and
"Want Two," among them "I Don't Know What It Is,"
"Dinner at Eight," and "Oh What a World."
The
son of two great popular music figures, Loudon
Wainwright III and Kate McGarrigle, Rufus Wainwright
burst upon the recording scene with his self-titled 1998
debut. He followed that with "Poses" in 2001. Rufus will
soon make his big screen debut in director Martin
Scorsese's upcoming "The Aviator," with a second film
role in the 2005 Merchant Ivory film "Heights."
