Never heard of this singer until tonight, well worth checking out.

Sister of Rufus, daughter of Louden the III?

She just appeared with Snow Patrol on Jonathan Ross's chat show (BBC1) this evening.

Also a daughter of Kate (I think) McGarrigle, so she has a great musical pedigree. I haven't heard her sing solo, but given her background I'd imagine she is well worth checking out.

Louden used his family as the source for much of his songwriting and he didn't seem to keep many secrets. It must've been strange for Martha and Rufus growing up and hearing their dad's version of their lives on stage and records.

She sings in the documentary about Leonard Cohen, "I'm Your Man."
