Canadian sisters, raised with music and song as part of their daily lives; distilled the rich musical traditions they were part of, as songwriters and performers, beginning as catalysts of the 1960's Montreal folk scene. Their songs found wider audiences as their careers continued, as more celebrated(famous!) folks, like Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris covered their material and shared their own passion about the sisters music with their fans. Active until 2010; Kate McGarrigle passed away January 18th. More informative links below.
