  • Wainwright, Rufus (B
    Wainwright, Rufus (b. 1973) by Linda Rapp Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2004, glbtq, inc. Rufus Wainwright. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Courtesy Dreamworks Records. Singer and songwriter Rufus Wainwright has built a successful career with witty lyrics and rich melodies that have earned him comparisons to Cole Porter and George Gershwin. Wainwright cites Al Jolson, Edith Piaf, and Nina Simone as artists who were among his early inspirations. Both music critics and Wainwright's loyal fans appreciate the structural complexity and lush orchestrations of his works. Described by Advocate reviewer Anderson Jones as "the thinking gay man's sex symbol," Wainwright composes and performs songs marked by intelligence, humor, and pathos. In his rendition, his songs are at once achingly plaintive and hip, their frank romanticism only barely mediated by a light dose of irony. Wainwright comes from a distinctly musical family. His father is American folk-singer and humorist Loudon Wainwright III, and his mother is Canadian folk-singer and songwriter Kate McGarrigle. Born July 22, 1973 in Rhinebeck, New York, Rufus Wainwright grew up in Montreal, where his mother made her home after his parents separated when he was three and subsequently divorced. Music has always been at the center of Wainwright's life. He began learning to play the piano at six and by his early teens was performing on tour with his mother, his aunt Anna McGarrigle, and his sister Martha Wainwright as the McGarrigle Sisters and Family. Wainwright wrote his first song, "I'm A-Runnin'," for the children's film Tommy Tricker and the Stamp Traveller (1988, directed by Michael Rubbo), for which his mother and aunt had been engaged to provide the music.

    Dominic Cifarelli is a Canadian guitarist who debuted on the music scene in 2001 with the signing of his first band Pulse Ultra by Velvet Hammer/Atlantic who manages the likes of System of a Down, Deftones, Alice in Chains and various others. Following the signing, Pulse Ultra performed extensively on multiple tours including Ozzfest in Europe and the U.S. as well as supporting spots for American Headcharge, Chevelle and Taproot internationally and in Europe. In 2002 Dominic was featured alongside John Mayer, Derek Trucks & Joe Bonamassa, on the cover of Guitar One magazine - 10 Players You Must Know, solidifying his position as an up-and-coming talent. In 2010 he was featured on the cover of Canadian music magazine Muzik Etc, a publication both in print and online. Pulse Ultra has had music chosen by Nintendo for the Need for Speed 2 video game soundtrack and also by the CW's Smallville television series. Cifarelli’s writing credits include a collaboration with Lukas Rossi on the single "Headspin" which is featured on the album "Rockstar Supernova" starring Tommy Lee, Gilby Clarke and Jason Newsted. Additionally some other contributions to note include performances on French Platinum artist Zaho's debut album and followup release and two guitar solos on a Rush tribute album released by Magna Carta which featured Sebastian Bach (Skid Row), Mike Mangini (Dream Theater) and Stu Hamm (Steve Vai).
