Emily Grove’s Joni Jam celebrates the legendary catalogue of Joni Mitchell’s music with an 8-piece band and Emily’s pitch perfect interpretation of Joni’s unique vocals. Touching on the full breadth of Mitchell’s works from 1968’s Song to a Seagull to the jazz-tinged records of the mid-1990’s, this band hits every note. This is not a dress-up imitation act, Emily Grove’s Joni Jam is true recreation and representation of these songs and the characters within. More information here

Following a revered debut at The Roundhouse in April 2024, a string of sold out performances and widespread critical acclaim, The Songs of Joni Mitchell returns this autumn with an extraordinary lineup of artists paying tribute to one of the greatest songwriters of all time.

Jesca Hoop, Kate Stables (This Is The Kit) & Lail Arad, acclaimed singer-songwriters in their own right, will perform intimate interpretations of their favourite Joni Mitchell songs in a loving ode to one of the finest songwriters of all time. They will be joined by Richard Sears on piano and special guests Lisa Hannigan & Loah for London and Dublin.

Despite being ranked number 9 on the legendary "Rolling Stone" magazine's list of the 100 greatest singer/songwriters of all time, Canadian pop icon JONI MITCHELL is unfortunately far too little known in Germany. People are more likely to be familiar with her top hits, which are often not associated with her, such as "This Flight Tonight , " "Big Yellow Taxi , " " Woodstock , " "My Secret Place," and "Both Sides Now . "

With her four excellent musicians, the Stuttgart singer Birgitta Menzer presents all of her favorite songs of the artist, and the listener can experience in a magnificent way what it means when Joni Mitchell says about herself:

“I’m painting with words and music” . More information here

Lauren and The Good Souls came together initially, in tribute to the amazingly talented Joni Mitchell 9 years ago right here at Lovin’ Cup, and have been doing this tribute every year since. This birthday brunch show is unique in that the 1st set will feature an acoustic set from members of the JMDL (Joni Mitchell Discussion List). This group has been gathering since the mid 90’s and have put on Jonifest’s all over the world. This year, we will host the JMDL here in Rochester, and will feature members from across the United States and Canada! The Good Souls will play the 2nd set as a full band. If you know Mitchell’s music, you know the complexity, beauty, depth and evolution of her songwriting. From the intimate acoustic moments, horn section swells, tight harmonies and orchestral arrangements, this 10 piece band can cover it all. The band’s love and admiration for Joni’s music, and for each other, will captivate and engage the audience, making this show truly something special. To better represent the multitude of Joni’s creative prowess, Jill Anne Collins will be creating live on canvas while the band performs Joni’s hits and deep cuts.
