Loudon Snowden Wainwright III (born September 5, 1946) is an American songwriter, folk singer, humorist, and actor.
 He is the father of musicians Rufus Wainwright, Martha Wainwright, and Lucy Wainwright Roche; brother of Sloan Wainwright; and former husband of the late folksinger Kate McGarrigle.
 He resides in Canada.
Album III, as its title indicates, is the third full album from Loudon Wainwright III.
 It was originally released in 1972 on Columbia Records.
 "Album III" would spawn Loudon Wainwright's most popular hit single, "Dead Skunk", one of the many 'novelty songs' sprinkled throughout Wainwright's career.
 Although Wainwright has maintained an ironic, sometimes sepulchral sense of humor, "Dead Skunk", despite its commercial success, has dogged him ever since, as he comments on 1985's album "I'm Alright", "Were you embarrassed about 'Dead Skunk'"?
History is the twelfth studio album by American singer-songwriter Loudon Wainwright III, released on September 21, 1992 on Charisma Records.

Loudon Snowden Wainwright Jr. (December 16, 1924 – December 12, 1988) was an American writer.

Martha Wainwright (born May 8, 1976) is a Canadian-American folk-rock singer-songwriter.
 She is the daughter of American folk singer and actor Loudon Wainwright III and Canadian folk singer-songwriter Kate McGarrigle.
 She was raised in a musical family along with her older brother, Rufus Wainwright, in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

 Her musical style consists of a combination of folk, rock, jazz, and blues, an approach which owes itself to her time writing and performing throughout Greenwich Village.
Recovery is the nineteenth studio album by American singer-songwriter Loudon Wainwright III, released on August 19, 2008 on Yep Roc Records.
 The songs are "re-covers" from his first four albums: "Loudon Wainwright III" (1970), "Album II" (1971), "Album III" (1972) and "Attempted Mustache" (1973).

Loudon Wainwright III (also known as Album I) is the debut album of Loudon Wainwright III.
 It was released on vinyl in 1970 on Atlantic Records.
 Like his second effort "Album II", the album is a solo acoustic effort.
 Though his ironic sense of humour is evident, this is an altogether bleaker and more acerbic album ("Black Uncle Remus", "Four is a Magic Number", "Glad To See You've Got Religion") than most of his 1970s work.
