Marry Waterson

British singer, songwriter, and artist Marry Waterson has upheld the legacy of her famous folksinging family since first appearing alongside her mother Lal Waterson and aunt Norma Waterson on their 1977 LP, A True Hearted Girl. Involvement in other family-related projects like the Waterdaughters and Waterson:Carthy preceded her own debut, 2011's The Days That Shaped Me, which she made alongside her brother Oliver Knight. Despite possessing a singular voice, Marry has most often used her gift in collaboration with others, releasing a succession of duo albums with sympathetic partners including David A. Jaycock and Emily Barker. Her haunting 2019 release with the latter, A Window To Other Ways, caught the attention of Irish singer/songwriter Adrian Crowley, and the two musicians collaborated on 2024's Cuckoo Storm.
