About this album
Dancer With Bruised Knees is a warm, finely wrought folk-rock album that shows Kate & Anna McGarrigle at their most distinctively lyrical. Issued in 1977, it blends intimate songwriting, sharp humour and deft vocal harmonies, while moving easily between English and French material that reflects the duo’s Canadian roots. The title track, along with songs such as Southern Boys and Be My Baby, helped establish their gift for writing music that feels personal without ever sounding slight. Celebrated for its melodic detail and emotional honesty, the album remains one of the McGarrigles’ most admired releases.
