Rufus Wainwright is a Grammy-nominated, Juno-winning singer/songwriter known for his lush, theatrical pop influenced by Tin Pan Alley, cabaret, and opera. He debuted in 1998 with a self-titled album, rising to international acclaim with works like Release the Stars and his Judy Garland tribute, Rufus Does Judy at Carnegie Hall. Born in 1973 to folk legends Loudon Wainwright III and Kate McGarrigle, he was raised in Montreal and began performing as a child. His early success led to a DreamWorks deal, resulting in Rufus Wainwright and the acclaimed Poses. He expanded his artistry with the operatic Prima Donna (2009) and Take All My Loves: 9 Shakespeare Sonnets (2016). His return to pop with Unfollow the Rules (2020) was followed by Folkocracy (2023), a folk-inspired collaboration with artists like John Legend and Brandi Carlile. In 2025, he blended Verdi’s Requiem with Byron’s Darkness in Dream Requiem, featuring Meryl Streep and the Orchestre philharmonique de Radio France. Whether in pop, opera, or folk, Wainwright continues to push musical boundaries while honoring his diverse influences.
