	Kate & Anna McGarrigle: French-Canadian Folk Traditionalists
		Kate and Anna McGarrigle have not achieved the level of popularity and record sales of contemporary performers such as Linda Ronstadt, Emmylou Harris, the Roches, Leonard Cohen, or Maria Muldaur, but they comprise one of the most musically and lyrically gifted sister folk duos originating in the early 1970s second- generation folk-pop movement.
		The McGarrigles had a surprise in store for record executives who saw them as the "next Nyro." It was their "quaint" idea to put childraising before their career.
		The McGarrigles are sometimes compared to another folk-pop sister group, the Roches; in a strange coincidence, Loudon Wainwright later married Suzzy Roche.

	JMI: Kate & Anna McGarrigle
		When the McGarrigles released Heartbeats Accelerating (Private Music 1990) the New York Times said of one song, "Had Emily Dickinson been a late-20th Century songwriter, this might be just the sort of piece she would have written.
		There was a six-year gap before their next record, but when Kate and Anna McGarrigle released the critically acclaimed Matapedia in 1996, it was well worth the wait.
		Anna's husband Dane Lanken and their children Lily and Sylvan joined in, as did honorary McGarrigles Emmy Lou Harris and Linda Ronstadt, and old Montreal cohorts Chaim Tannenbaum, Michel Pepin and Joel Zifkin.

	Eye Weekly - Kate & Anna McGarrigle - 11.26.98
		Their uncanny likeness to each other aside, what strikes me first about Kate and Anna McGarrigle is how thoroughly hip they seem.
		But Kate and Anna, who were raised in Quebec singing French and Irish folk and parlor songs around the piano, have always existed on the fringes of stardom.
		Anna says she paints "about once a year," but likes playing on the computer.

		Like one of those old Osmond family TV specials that the album's title parodies, the McGarrigles rally their kinfolk (Kate's ex-husband Loudon Wainwright III, their exceptionally talented kids Rufus and Martha) along with some high-profile pals (Emmylou Harris, Linda Ronstadt) for a glorified after-supper sing- along.
		I was first turned on to the McGarrigles by hearing Kate I think singing a track called "House in the Country" on the Albion Band record of the 80's "Rise Up Like The Sun" and was struck by the sweetness and kinda vulnerability in her voice.
		I then didn't hear a lot more of the sisters until the T.V. programme Transatlantic Sessions, when their version of "Talk to me of Mendecino" was just about the greatest bit of harmony singing (and a great song)that I had heard in a long time.

	Kate & Anna McGarrigle - Biography - AOL Music
		Kate (b.1946) and Anna (b.1944) McGarrigle are Canadian songwriting sisters whose work first came to international recognition in 1974 when Linda Ronstadt recorded Anna's "Heart Like a Wheel" as the title song to one of her albums.
		The sisters were signed to Warner Brothers and recorded Kate & Anna McGarrigle, an album of deeply felt (sometimes deeply funny) songs with a homey, eclectic folk backing and tart, striking vocals.
		The McGarrigle Hour followed in 1998, followed by the McGarrigle Christmas Hour in 2005.

		The songs on Kate and Anna McGarrigle's second album suffer only when compared to the impossible bounty achieved with their self-titled debut two years earlier.
		The performances, however, are every bit as charming, and the arrangements extend a wise, winsome balancing act between their angelic harmonies and the vulnerable, unvarnished feel of their solos, while the best songs achieve a similar poise in matching art song ambition to folk earthiness.
		Even early in their career, the McGarrigles were already wise beyond their years (not to mention their more conventional singer/songwriter peers), sustaining a wistfulness that has continued throughout their work.

		Kate and Anna first came to public attention as songwriters in the early seventies after Linda Ronstadt (Heart like a wheel) and Maria Muldaur (The work song) each recorded one of their songs.
		Yes, the variety of voices provided by Kate and Anna, their family and friends ensure that this is an album with something for everybody, which will work well as background music but which sounds even better if you give it dedicated attention.

		I just wanted to stress that it is my humble opinion that Kate and Anna are better than Kate Bush and Happy Rhodes.
		Kate and Anna are folksingers, which more suits the kind of music I like to listen to.
		It does still have some wonderful songs, like their classic clever song, "NaCl" (later re-recorded on The McGarrigle Hour) which uses the chemistry of salt as a metaphor for romance.

		Kate and Anna's harmonies have never sounded tighter, and the choice of using Joe Boyd as producer (he produced their first two albums) was a good one, as he seems able to highlight their vocals and harmonies.
		The traditional folk song "Dig My Grave," featuring Chaim Tannenbaum, is chilling, and Anna's version of her own "Cool River" is incredibly moving -- all beautiful songs.
		This may be a small complaint, as the songs all mean something to the family, as evidenced in the notes in the package.

	Kate & Anna McGarrigle : The McGarrigle Hour - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		An interesting idea, given the talented family tree of the McGarrigle Sisters: Gather the family together (including Kate's ex-husband Loudon Wainwright) and record a CD as they play the family piano and sing traditional folk tunes, originals, and old pop standards.
		Add in some friends (Emmylou Harris turning in a stirring vocal on "Skip Rope Song"), Linda Ronstadt, and Chaim Tannenbaum, and the end result is a pleasant yet somewhat mediocre CD.
		Loudon Wainwright's "Schooldays," the opening track, is an early highlight, featuring great vocals and a great tune.

		Kate and Anna McGarrigle are the previous generation of folk-singing siblings, literally.
		The McGarrigle's version of family music doesn't have the same personal resonance, for me, as Nanci Griffith's, but this, too, sounds like a marvelous way to have grown up.

	Kate and Anna McGarrigle, Matapedia
		When I first listened to Matapedia, I was expecting the crystalline harmonies I'd long associated with the Canadian McGarrigle sisters, but I was in for a surprise.
		"Arbre" is a poem by Philippe Tartartcheff set to music by Anna McGarrigle, a delicate reflection on a tree in winter, awaiting spring.
		This is thoughtful, perceptive music to play when you want to be reflective and pay attention -- and it certainly deserves all the attention you can give it.

		I first heard of the McGarrigle sisters way back in the seventies when Linda Ronstadt covered Heart Like a Wheel, and suddenly discovered them again when I bought Emmylou Harris' incredible Wrecking Ball because I wanted to hear her version of Lucinda Williams' Sweet Old World (great cover but the original can't be beat).
		This was the first McGarrigle album that I had the good fortune to acquire.
		Not that the McGarrigle sisters are anything less than consummate musicians, but they eschew some of the sound processing that often makes everyone sound the same.

	village voice > music > Kate and Anna McGarrigle's The McGarrigle Christmas Hour by Mikael Wood
		Perhaps the lasting legacy of the McGarrigle/Wainwright family—mother and aunt Kate and Anna, father Loudon, kids Rufus and Martha—will be these musicians' propensity for swirling the sacred and the profane, folk tradition with urbane wit.
		Proud Montrealers, Kate and Anna lead the group through "Il Est Né/Ça Bergers," while Rufus somehow resists chewing the scenery to a pulp in Frank Loesser's "What Are You Doing New Year's Eve," reprised from a Gap spot he did in 1999.
		Yet like the thoughtful song-catchers they are, the clan imbue the relatively obscure material with the same warmth you expect from Burl Ives.
