singer-songwriter, film composer and pianist Patrick Watson has released “House on Fire”, the track is a collaboration with the wonderful singer-songwriter Martha Wainwright. Written by Watson during a period where he lost his ability to sing – and by Wainwright, “House On Fire” features his voice intertwined with Wainwright’s in the duet : ‘I’ll be wrong / you’ll be right / I don’t mind / I just want to make it right’. The track also appears on Watson’s forthcoming album UH OH, available September 26 via Secret City Records.

Martha Wainwright is the daughter of Kate McGarrigle and Loudon Wainwright III and sister of singer Rufus Wainwright, Martha grew up in a world filled with incomparable musical legends Anna McGarrigle, Leonard Cohen, Suzzy Roche, Richard and Linda Thompson, Emmylou Harris, and struggled to find her voice in a milieu in which every drama was refracted through song. Then, in 2005, she released her debut album, Martha Wainwright.

Most of the songs on Uh Oh see Watson and his long-time bandmates, collaborator and multi-instrumentalist Mishka Stein, Olivier Fairfield, and co-vocalist Ariel Engle (La Force) joined by a guest singer. The featured vocalists range from the iconic voices he’s idolized for years – Martha Wainwright – to ones he discovered through Instagram scrolling like Solann and local Quebec favorite Klô Pelgag, and include international phenoms MARO, Hohnen Ford, November Ultra, JUNO Award winner Charlotte Cardin, Félix award winner Anachnid, and a friend he met when she worked the counter at this local coffee shop, Charlotte Oleena. “Every singer has these different magical powers on this record, and each song kind of represents that,” Watson says.
