In what will be an unforgettable celebration of her music and art rather than a typical tribute, ‘This is Joni’ offers something for everyone, and not just for solid fans of Joni Mitchell’s extensive musical history.

Written and performed by Melbourne singer/song writer, Lauren Elizabeth, the audience will be taken through an exploration of memorable songs from the legendary singer/songwriter, who defined a generation through her music. It is impossible to categorize Joni’s sound, as she explored so many genres, and this show pays homage to them all.

Performing her many hits such as ‘Help Me’, ‘Big Yellow Taxi’, ‘Blue’ and ‘Free Man In Paris‘, plus a collection of songs spanning Joni’s 40-odd year career, Lauren will perform with her outstanding 6 piece band, comprising some of Melbourne’s finest musicians and special guest vocalists.

The show will also explore the artist and painter that is Joni Mitchell and the work she has produced, dating back to the early 1950’s, right up to the present day.

‘This is Joni’ introduces Lauren Elizabeth, a Monash Performing Arts alumni who has been performing throughout Melbourne and Australia for over 15 years. Her most credited work includes numerous appearances on Channels 9 & 10, performances with the Melbourne Sydney Symphony Orchestra, singing alongside artists such as Kate Ceberano, Ross Wilson, Daryl Braithwaite, Joe Camilleri, Vika Bull and Vince Jones, and more recently working as the backing vocalist for studio albums by The Black Sorrows.

Lauren explains, “I was introduced to Joni’s music when I was 12 years old by my father, and that’s when I decided I wanted to become a singer myself. She is without question my greatest musical inspiration. Writing and performing this show will be an incredible highlight in my career.”

40 år etter at Joni Mitchell heldt sin einaste konsert i Noreg, og same året som ho fyller 80 år, kan du oppleve eit knippe av hennar fantastiske songar framført av lokale, nasjonale og internasjonale artistar:

Siril Malmedal Hauge med band
Duoen "Roses for Joni" frå Italia
Christina Friis-Nielsen frå Danmark
Emma Sævik
Vegard Kvamme Holum
Tolvtetten
Orkester med strykarar og blåsarar
Orkesterleiar Magnus M. Joelson
Konferansier Bjørn Holum

Fosnavåg konserthus har invitert Siril Malmedal Hauge med band til å sette saman ein tributekonsert til denne dama som fyller 80 år i november. I tillegg har vi invitert duoen "Roses for Joni" frå Italia og Christina Friis-Nielsen frå Danmark.

Fosnavåg konserthus har jobba med prosjektet ei tid og kome fram til ei form og eit innhald som kan bli spektakulært og mektig. Det blir også ei solid lokal forankring og frå Fosnavåg skal både Vegard Kvamme Holum, Emma Sævik og koret Tolvtetten bidra til det. Det er også sett saman eit stort orkester med strykarar og blåsarar på 12 personar

Siril Malmedal Hauge frå Langevåg, men busett i Oslo har med seg Kjetil Mulelid på piano, Martin Morland på bass, Henrik Lødøen på trommer, Martin Myhre Olsen på sax og Torgeir Hovden Standal på gitar.

I byrjinga av tjueåra oppdaga Christina Friis-Nielsen Joni Mitchell gjennom ein avisannonse laga av den danske gitaristen og produsenten Henning Olsen, som leita etter ein songar for å framføre musikken til den kanadiske singer-songwriteren. Omgåande fascinert av kompleksiteten og skjønnheita i musikken, vart møtet mellom Henning og Christina utgangspunktet for Christina sin eigen karriere som singer-songwriter. Etter ei rekkje konsertar i Danmark reiste ho til USA, der ho skreiv og spelte inn sin eigen musikk, medan ho heldt fram med å foredle repertoaret til Joni Mitchell. Ho har spelt inn totalt fire Joni Mitchell-hyllest-album. Dei fleste av desse albuma har fokusert på songar som aldri har vore gitt ut av Joni Mitchell sjølv, og det siste album heiter The Quiet of Knowing: Joni Mitchell Unknown og inneheld songar arrangert av amerikanaren Dave Blackburn. Songlista inkluderer dermed Joni Mitchells aller første låt, Day After Day, skrive i 1966, då Joni berre var 23, og som Christina skal framføre på konsertane i Noreg saman med tre andre «ukjende skattar» i Mitchells tidlegaste songkatalog.

Orkesteret, som har fått namnet "Wild Things Run Fast-orkesteret" er samansett av bandet til Siril M Hauge; Kjetil Mulelid - piano, Martin Morland - bass, Henrik Lødøen - trommer, Torgeir Hovden Standal - gitar og for dette prosjektet også Vegard Kvamme Holum på trompet. Ellers er desse med: Ålesund strykekvartett som er Ai-Ling Chiu og Laurens Weinhold på fiolin, Linda Bønes på bratsj og Samuel Skrede på cello. Nora Hannisdal - horn, Knut Elias Barstad - tuba, Øyvind Granden Berg - fløyte, Arnulf Johansen - obo, Håkon Hagen Knudsen - klarinett, Miki Campins - perkusjon og Birgitte Volan Håvik på harpe.

Magnus Murphy Joelson skriv arrangement for kor og orkester og skal vere orkesterleiar i tillegg til å spele trombone.

I tillegg til Fosnavåg blir det også konsert på Operahuset på Norfjordeid torsdag 11. mai og på Parken kulturhus 12. mai.

Konsertane er støtta av: Sparebanken Møre, Sparebanken Søre Sunnmøre, Havila, REM, Olympic kulturfond samt Møre og Romsdal fylkeskommune og Kulturrådet. More information here

I will be performing a concert in Trondheim, Norway on March 17, together with my tribute band «WE ARE STARDUST» - a group of friends who met 25 years ago in high school playing Joni's songs. We are all educated musicians now, performing in bands and orchestras in Norway, but with the same passion for Joni's songs, and I guess, a deeper understanding for the lyrics now than when we were youngsters. We are looking forward to perform a lot of songs from the albums «Court and Spark», «Hejira» and «Blue», a couple of songs from the «Mingus» album, other hits like «Flat Tires», «Woodstock», «Big Yellow Taxi» and of course the most beautiful song ever written «Both Sides Now».

Four of the region’s strongest female lead voices will celebrate Joni Mitchell‘s music at Cohoes Music Hall on March 11. On a not to be missed night, the four women will come together to celebrate Mitchell’s memorable career.

Local greats Belle-Skinner, Zan & the Winter Folk, Hold on Honeys, and Girl Blue will perform her beloved music in their own voices at the Hall. Each of these women has emerged in Nippertown as a strong artist in their own right and will combine forces to recreate the magic of Mitchell’s music starting at 8 pm.

Zan Strumfeld, now of the Winter folk but previously a solo artist is well beloved for lullabies and ballads, as well as bluegrass and rock. Herself a compelling figure on stage, Zan’s presence commands attention that will lend itself well to Mitchell’s vibe.

Belle-Skinner has a soprano voice that she lends to music to create nostalgia for the listener, and she’s been compared to Mitchell by reviewers. Her music is described as both haunting and beautiful, capturing the essence of melodic lyrics.

Newcomers Hold On Honeys will bring a younger vibe to this concert. The trio of women from Troy, Emily Curro, Raya Malcolm, and Shannon Rafferty sing three-part harmony with show stopping accuracy and beauty.

And finally, Girl Blue, Troy’s Arielle O’Keefe, will add a sexy and powerful voice to the mix. If you’ve heard Girl Blue before, you’ve likely cried, jumped, and danced all in one set. O’Keefe’s well-known control over her pitch while letting loose with volume and energy should shine some extra magic on the night.

On the 3rd March, Peggy’s Skylight will be putting on a celebratory concert of music by the unique, brilliant and inspirational artist, Joni Mitchell. Bandleader for the project, Pete Oxley, writes:

"I have long been a massive fan of Joni Mitchell’s music, ranging from the sparse, folky early albums (such as ‘Blue’) to the late, gorgeously lush albums arranged by the brilliant Vince Mendoza (‘Both Sides Now’ and ‘Travelogue’). Somewhere in the middle of her career was what some people describe as her ‘jazz period’ - and it is from this era that we will be creating the programme for this gig.

Many of you will be aware of the album called ‘Shadows And Light’. This is a 'Desert Island Disc’ for me - not just because her band comprises a whole load of my favourite musicians, but because as a live album, it fizzes with an incredible, electric atmosphere from the off! The songs on the album are beautiful, exciting and, as always with Joni, totally touching in the poignancy of the lyrics. There is a DVD of this concert and it is clear that Joni must have been totally living the dream, performing her masterpiece works with this group".

And so to our band for the 3rd March: firstly, taking on the role of Joni Mitchell will be Hattie Whitehead - who not only pulls off the qualities of Mitchell’s singing…but also plays guitar like Joni, involving all sorts of Mitchell’s ‘open tunings'! Hattie grew up, surrounded by world-class musicians - being the daughter of the outstanding saxophonist, Tim Whitehead. Aside from mastering Joni’s mannerisms, Hattie is a great singer/songwriter in her own right: she won the Glastonbury Emerging Talent Competition in 2016 and has had hundreds of thousands of streams of her original works listened to.

The band also features the superb (New Jazz Generation) keyboard player, Chris Eldred. Chris was winner of the Yamaha 'Award for Outstanding Jazz Musicians’ and was the keyboardist with the National Youth Jazz orchestra (NYJO) between 2008 and 2014.

For the purposes of not going on at length here - and because most of you will be aware of their work - we’ll just list the total personnel for this gig; however, let us assure you that this line-up comprises only very, very fine players! The band will be:

Hattie Whitehead ~ vocals & guitar
Ollie Weston ~ tenor & soprano saxophones
Chris Eldred ~ keyboards
Pete Oxley ~ guitar
Dave Jones ~ bass
Rick Finlay ~ drums
Keith Fairbairn ~ percussion

A live-streamed concert in front of a VIP audience. Performed by the MASTERLINK SESSIONS ALL-STARS featuring vocalists MIM GREY, JO HARMAN and MIKE MAYFIELD.

Covering Joni Mitchell can be a journey full of potholes and missteps, but, equally, great songs are made to be revisited so the challenge is there to be had.

This particular journey started in a somewhat ad hoc fashion but, before anyone knew it, there was not only a bunch of instrumentals in the can but also a queue of A list vocalists (think the likes of Rumer, Hamish Stuart to mention but two) wanting to get involved. Hence it's looks like not one, but two albums (one instrumental and one of featured guest vocalists) may well be in the works!

In the meantime, 3 of the best vocalists in the business - Mim Grey (McCartney, Tom Jones, Brand New Heavies), Jo Harman (Duetted with Michael McDonald, Lamont Dozier) and Mike Mayfield (Ed Sheeran, Jessie J) join Redtenbacher's Funkestra, aka the Masterlink studio band, for a special live stream concert in front of a bespoke audience of about 30 people.

This exclusive full length concert takes place at the beautiful Surrey countryside location of Send Hill Studios - free parking on the site, too - where audience members can not just enjoy a 'front row' seat at this very special performance but also a 'behind the scenes' look of how these things work as it were, together, no doubt, with a meet and greet with the performers concerned.

The creator of Both Sides Now, Big Yellow Taxi, The Circle Game and many other tunes, stands out as one of the most important female songwriters of our time, as evidenced by Mitchell’s landmark albums Blue, Ladies of the Canyon and Hejira.

Today, she's a mature young adult who has released a string of platinum and gold albums, racking up millions of sales and accolades around the world.

Among the singer/songwriters who emerged in the 1960s, none were as adventurous, incisive, or influential as Joni Mitchell. Her melodious tunes support her poetic and often very personal lyrics to make her one of the most authentic artists of her time. As a performer, she is widely hailed for her unique style of playing guitar. Mitchell's unflinching struggle for her own artistic independence has made her a role model for many other musicians. Mitchell is also a noted painter and has created the beautiful artwork that appears on the packaging of her music albums.

She first became famous for penning "Both Sides Now", a song that helped launch the career of Judy Collins. Her first album appeared in 1968, which featured her voice and her acoustic guitar with virtually no other accompaniment on most songs. Other highly successful albums followed. Mitchell won her first Grammy Award in 1969 for Clouds. She has won seven more Grammy Awards since then, in several different categories, including traditional pop, pop music, and lifetime achievement. More information here.

Among the singer/songwriters who emerged in the 1960s, none were as adventurous, incisive, or influential as Joni Mitchell. Her melodious tunes support her poetic and often very personal lyrics to make her one of the most authentic artists of her time. As a performer, she is widely hailed for her unique style of playing guitar. Mitchell's unflinching struggle for her own artistic independence has made her a role model for many other musicians. Mitchell is also a noted painter and has created the beautiful artwork that appears on the packaging of her music albums.

In BLUE: The Songs of Joni Mitchell, Queenie, along with her live band, explores her love of all things Joni. Using voice overs and intimate storytelling, Queenie takes us on a sonic journey through Joni’s life, loses and loves, affectionately reinterpreting her melancholy music, and intimately revealing the stories behind some of her most haunting songs such as A Case of You, Both Sides Now, Big Yellow Taxi and Little Green.

From early folk to folk-rock, to jazz and pop music, Joni Mitchell continually evolved and pushed the envelope, defying critics and fans, who wanted her to stay the lithe and lovely, gentle folk faerie that they fell in love with in the 60's.

The Joni Project formed as a tribute in sound and spirit to Joni Mitchell, one of music’s greatest and most innovative artists.

From the deep folk roots of her musical beginnings, Joni’s music has evolved over the years to include elements of funk, rock and the full palette of harmonic colors embodied by modern jazz. Her innovative guitar tunings and brilliantly original chord progressions were paired with beautifully crafted melodies adorned by lyrics of unmatched poetic profundity to create some of the most powerfully enduring and well-loved songs of all time.

The Joni Project is fronted by the remarkable multiple-instrumentalist and songwriter Katie Pearlman on guitar & vocals, and also includes jazz and jam band mainstays Dave Berg on guitar, Dan Ehrlich on bass, Alan Lerner on drums, Mark Mancini on keyboards, Steve Finklestein on percussion, Premik Russell Tubbs on saxophone and flute, and Victoria Faiella on background vocals.

Collectively, they've performed with members of the Grateful Dead, The Band, The Doors, the Neville Brothers and many others.

Join singer/pianist Joanna Eden to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Joni Mitchell’s seminal album “Blue” with classic songs such as “A Case Of You”, “My Old Man” and many more.

Following her Joni & Me show a few years ago, Joanna returns to St Peter's with this further celebration of the life and music of the iconic US singer/songwriter.

Starting as a finger-picking folkie and winding up as a jazz-savvy experimentalist, Joni Mitchell has brought a sharp eye, light touch and an agile trill of a voice to her songs, which have often dissected her romances and skewered myopic governments. She became a critical sensation on Detroit’s folk scene, and her notices led to a series of successful engagements in New York. These early songs, ”Both Sides Now” “Eastern Rain” “The Circle Game” & ”Clouds” have become standards. More information here.

Bradley Thachuk, conductor- Sarah Slean, vocalist. Joni Mitchell’s iconic blend of blues, rock, and jazz has made her of one of Canada’s most beloved folk musicians. More information here.

My first experience taking in Joni Mitchell's 1971 album “Blue” was as a 20-something, lying on my back on the living room carpet in a home in which I was house-sitting. I listened to “ Blue" for hours, alternately singing along to it and letting the indescribable music, poetry and vocals wash over me like a healing bath. Like so many other personal accounts I have come across, I found “Blue" at a time when my angst-ridden self most needed soothing.

Many years later, I learned to play the guitar parts and sing every song on “Blue” and recruited my musically accomplished husband to cover the complex piano pieces on “Blue". Our first “Blue” Tribute happened for a crowd of 50 expats in Cuenca, Ecuador in February of 2018.

Four years and 8 shows later, our “Blue" Tribute has developed into something more with the addition of other Joni Mitchell songs and songs written for and about her by her famous lovers at the time which include Leonard Cohen, James Taylor and Graham Nash. These legendary musicians were the muses for many of the songs on “Blue” and their songs and stories reveal much of the inspiration behind “Blue" and create a portrait of one of the greatest singer-songwriters of all time. More information here.

Joni Mitchell is a masterful musician: self-taught, she is at the same time an outstanding composer, poet, instrumentalist and singer. She has collaborated with jazz greats like Charles Mingus, Jaco Pastorius, and Herbie Hancock. Prince and Björk cited her as inspiration.

I had a strong wish to share stories on how, in the 70’s, Joni’s music penetrated my heart in the Middle East. Speaking in the third person, high schooler H wanders through the streets of Jerusalem, Jericho and Bethlehem, haunted by Joni. She follows him down to the Sinai desert where H, now a medic in the tank corps, sees her dancing in the dunes. Later, in Paris, Joni hovers behind H’s left shoulder, scrutinizing his first attempts at composition.

Today, the teenager has become a composer, singer, writer and instrumentalist, but he is still dazzled by her music.

Joni Mitchell 's chiseled playing with her guitar and piano is inseparable from her melodies and lyrics. Each song, each record is engraved in me like sound photos. To shake up my bearings, I sought the collaboration of musicians rich in imagination, without preconceived ideas, young people who did not know the universe of Joni Mitchell.

Joni Mitchell in Jerusalem has been waiting for me for 20 years. That's it, I'm there.

Vogliamo accompagnarvi in un viaggio attraverso la discografia di una delle artiste più ispirate ed eclettiche nel panorama musicale degli ultimi cinquant'anni, punto di riferimento imprescindibile per generazioni di musicisti.

Raggiunto il successo come autrice e performer solista folk alla fine degli anni ’60 si avvicina, durante gli anni ’70, tanto al rock quanto al jazz senza mai perdere originalità e vena creativa; la sua produzione ci accompagna sino agli anni 2000 attraversando i tradizionali confini tra diversi generi e linguaggi musicali.

Nei suoi testi sa raccontarsi da un'angolazione assolutamente personale e nello stesso tempo universale, dipingendo la donna nella ricerca di equilibrio tra libertà e intimità affettiva, osservando la società e lo show business con franchezza disarmata e disarmante.

Lungo tutto il suo percorso artistico ottiene la stima e la collaborazione dei più grandi musicisti (Neil Young, Crosby Stills and Nash, Leonard Cohen, James Taylor, Jaco Pastorius, Charles Mingus, John Guerin, Wayne Shorter, Michael Breaker, Peter Erskine, Pat Metheny, Herbie Hancock, Michael Landau, Steve Lukather, Vinnie Colaiuta, Peter Gabriel, Tom Petty, Seal, Prince, Paulinho Da Costa, Brian Blade, Vince Mendoza...)

“Joni’s World” rivisita in quintetto i grandi classici del suo repertorio e offre uno sguardo inedito anche alle produzioni più recenti, caratterizzandosi per l’inevitabile varietà di stili che la multiforme creatività di Joni Mitchell spinge a esplorare. More information here.

Coral Egan, Yannick Rieu, Rick Haworth, Daniel Thouin and four other partners. Joni Mitchell is a unique and timeless artist. Not only does she have a career spanning half a century, but each of her albums is a world of its own. A formation made up of the cream of Quebec musicians, namely Coral Egan (voice), Yannick Rieu (saxophone) and Daniel Thouin (piano) accompanied by Rick Haworth (electric guitar), Rémi-Jean Leblanc (bass), Joana Peters (percussion) , voice), Robbie Kuster (drums) and Zachary Boileau (acoustic guitar) offers here an overview of her work where jazz, folk and pop come together in an original and relevant way. One can expect a very personal reinterpretation of River, Big Yellow Taxi, Coyote and other ones, but strongly anchored in the spirit of the musical openness that characterizes Joni Mitchell's repertoire. The songs thus become a playground for improvisation and interpretation. A retrospective that does not give in to nostalgia, but that undoubtedly fits into the present. More information here.

When I was a teenager in Israel, Joni Mitchell's music followed me through the streets of Jerusalem, Jericho and Bethlehem. I’m sixty-three now, living in France, and the songs still elude me, they still slip through my fingers.

This concert has been maturing for a long time. Together with Matthieu Beaudin (electronic accordion) and Jules Lefrançois (tuba and drums), fresh arrangements emerged; 3-voice harmonies flourished. I also share stories on how, in the 70’s, Joni’s music penetrated my heart in the Middle East. More information here.

This year's event is in benefit to "Our Brother's Keeper" Homeless Shelter. In addition to live music, there will be raffles, 50/50 drawings and a Silent Auction, PLUS Cranker's is donating 10% of all sales during the event! I hope to see you at the event!

My name is Jan Foote, I'm a composer of experimental classical music and I'm doing a PhD at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.

I recently wrote a new piece called Echoes of Joni, which is a 40-minute work of experimental music composed for Attica Ensamble, a Mexican ensemble of amplified classical music.

The piece that doesn't sound much like Joni's music, but her songs permeate the entire piece, albeit in a rather hidden way. I was particularly inspired by the albums, Hejira, Hissing of the Summer Lawns and Don Juan's Reckless Daughter.

I took the idea of travel as a concept from Hejira as well, but instead of telling stories of travel, I tried to compose a continually changing landscape of ambient sound.

Echoes of Joni will be premiered online as part of the Fonoteca Nacional's 'Contigo en la distancia' series on the 11th December at 13:00 Central time. It will be shown on their youtube and facebook channels. More information here.

Joni Adno and Friends pay tribute to Joni Mitchell. Joni has been singing since she can remember. Encouraged by her drummer/vocalist father, she began singing duets with her imaginary friend Ricky Nelson on the front porch when she was 4, then graduated to the Presbyterian Choir, junior and senior high chorus. Piano lessons turned into a degree from the University of North Florida in Music Education with a Piano Minor. She sang for friends, weddings, and private affairs until 2005 when her dream of being in a real band came true and she joined up with the Sarasota band Big Night Out, playing keyboards and singing latin, pop, and Motown favorites.

The Joni Project is comprised of saxophone, bass, percussion, keyboards, guitar and vocals, bringing to life the best of Joni Mitchell’s tunes, from her Song to a Seagull album to Hejira, in her most prolific period from 1960’s to 1978. Come out and enjoy some of your favorite Joni tunes. More information here. Live stream here.

The Perri & Neil Quartet re-interpret Joni Mitchell’s 1971 classic album, Blue, in a way that is true to the original, but also draws on the styles of these incredible musicians. Jazz is rolled up with flavours of soca, latin, folk and rock. Between them, they have worked with a host of other musicians including Paco Peña, Jon Anderson (Yes), Seal, Damon Albarn, (Blur, Gorillaz), and Thea Gilmore. Blue was one of the first of the truly confessional, singer-songwriter genre. Joni wrote the songs as a young adult and takes us on her journey navigating her emotional terrain at the time. It was also the start of her being able to strip out any musical or lyrical influences and just be herself.

Perri is in story-telling mode with a splash of the theatrical, as she weaves an autobiographical thread through the show, revealing the special place the album has had in her own life.

The performance will be staged for one night only at The Capstone Theatre, Hope University, on Saturday 13th November at 19:30. More information here.

Starting as a finger-picking folkie and winding up as a jazz-savvy experimentalist, Joni Mitchell has brought a sharp eye, light touch and an agile trill of a voice to her songs, which have often dissected her romances and skewered myopic governments.

Mitchell became a critical sensation on Detroit’s folk scene, and her notices led to a series of successful engagements in New York. These early songs, ”Both Sides Now” “Eastern Rain” “The Circle Game” & ”Clouds” have become standards. More information here.

In honor of Ms. Mitchell’s 77th birthday, Reckless Daughter - In Celebration of Joni Mitchell will perform the album “Blue”, plus hits and deep cuts from selected albums and adapted live arrangements.

2021 marks the 50th Anniversary of the release of “Blue”. In “Blue”, Ms. Mitchell reveals her personal truth through her storytelling style of songwriting. Vulnerable, heart breaking with glimmers of hope to a new future, the album marks her first step beyond the “folk singer” classification imposed by the recording industry. Produced by Ms. Mitchell, with James Taylor having a few guest appearances, it’s stark style leaves room for each track to unfold to the next. Each song, as she later wrote, a confession that ended up taking years to be actually revealed. Beloved throughout the world, “Blue” is a masterpiece and a treasured work in most music enthusiasts collections and playlists.

Joining Peg Talbott-Lane on vocals for “Blue” are Amanda Brizzi, Roxy Fae, Irene Lambrou & Shannon McGill.

Brandi Carlile will perform Joni Mitchell’s Blue in its entirety at Carnegie Hall this fall, her second time covering the legendary LP.

Carlile first performed the album in October 2019 in Los Angeles, shortly after she met the singer-songwriter at her 75th birthday tribute concert. Since then, the two musicians have formed a close bond, with Carlile recently writing the liner notes for the 50th-anniversary reissue of Blue.

“In my opinion, Blue is the greatest album ever made,” she wrote. “Blue didn’t make me a better songwriter. Blue made me a better woman… No matter what we are dealing with in these times we can rejoice and know that of all the ages we could have lived through, we lived in the time of Joni Mitchell.”

General tickets for the November 6th concert go on sale Thursday at 11 am E.T. Carlile recently announced her new album In These Silent Days, out October 1st via Low Country Sound/Elektra Records.

Joni's Soul began as a collaboration between "from-the-heart" London soul singer Gina Foster and former longtime Van Morrison guitarist Ronnie Johnson, enlisting some of UK's very finest players with a shared love for an artist they consider to be one of the greatest singer/songwriters and guitar innovators of the last half century.

Coyote, Hejira, Edith and the Kingpin, The Hissing of Summer Lawns, A Case of You, Trouble Child, Help Me and Gina’s gorgeous version of Both Sides Now - it’s through songs like these that the band explore the unique songwriting and gift of performance Joni revealed in her iconic albums Blue, Court and Spark, Hejira, The Hissing of Summer Lawns and beyond …

Drawing on their own emotional response to these songs Joni’s Soul have looked beyond merely the faithful reproduction of the Joni Mitchell songbook to shine a light on the most soulful aspects of her words and music. The band's recently released cd 'Shades Of Joni' passionately illustrates their well-defined and warm interpretations of some of the finest songwriting and performance in music history.

Oct 6 & 7, 7:30pm – In June of 1971 Joni Mitchell released what would go on to be her most beloved work, the now legendary album “Blue”. A deeply honest and vulnerable collection of songs, Blue has been the soundtrack to the lives of so many throughout the past 5 decades as they’ve navigated their own tumultuous relationships, joys, and sorrows, or as Joni put it, “love so naughty it makes you weak in the knees.” In celebration of 50 years since its release, Broadway songstress Katie Boeck (Voice of Wendla in the Tony-Nominated Revival of Spring Awakening, The Newsroom), is playing and singing the album from start to finish, offering a chance to hear the songs as performed on the record, honoring their original arrangements while interpreting them through her own musical lens and connecting the themes to her own life. From the lonely roads of “All I Want” to the winds of Africa in “Carey” and the “Acid, booze and ass” of the titular track, Katie’s voice echoes the soaring emotional range, playful textures, and haunting hues of Joni’s “Blue” in a way that few can emulate. The show features Katie on Piano, Guitar and Dulcimer, Michael Gannon (Guitar, Vocals), Chris Benelli (Percussion), and Makenna Hartlin (Background Vocals). Tickets for the 6th and for the 7th.

"There's been a lot of celebration of Joni Mitchell's album, "Blue," this year since it was released 50 years ago in June 2021. It is indeed a special record which has moved and influenced generations of songwriters and audiences. We are honored to be able to share our version.

"Michele Temple and I are also celebrating an anniversary: In August 2012,

"I called Michele, asking her to learn all the songs from "Blue" in their original keys and arrangements so we could perform them at The Bitter End where Joni used to play. I had personal reasons to heal from pain and loss for pursuing this project - it was not about heroine worship. I planned to perform the album the way I heard it as a kid, in the order the songs were placed on the LP. Delighted that Michele agreed to play with me, we got to work.

"Instead of the usual one or two rehearsals for a show, we found ourselves meeting repeatedly before the concert, getting into deep discussions about each song, musically and in terms of the poetry and meaning of the lyrics.

"This was not common pop music - there was something else going on here and we were always investigating.

"I thought "Blue" would be a project for a few months, but the intense work involved inspired us to keep developing and playing this interesting music and to study over 30 songs from Joni's first six records over the past nine years.

"We hope you'll enjoy what we've come up with, painstakingly learning the notes that Joni and her colleagues played, joining with our colleagues in future concerts to share more with you."

UConn is looking at Joni Mitchell from both sides now. The legendary singer/songwriter is the subject of a daylong virtual conference at the University of Connecticut April 9.

The event is structured around the 50th anniversary of her “Blue” album, renowned not just for Mitchell’s arresting vocal style and songwriting craft but for its sparse and unusual acoustic instrumentation which includes a dulcimer as well as acoustic guitar and piano.

The event’s organizer, Peter Kaminsky is a professor of Music Theory at UConn. “I’ll be 68 in May, and I grew up listening to her music,” he says. “In high school, her albums blew my mind. Now, she’s had a number of interviews lately, and released a five-volume archive of her music, so it’s kind of a Joni moment.

“This is an academic conference, with cutting-edge work on Joni Mitchell from scholars, but it will also have appeal for Baby Boomers.”

Con Federico Gil Solá y Alito Spina

Varias generaciones de músicos han sido cautivados e influenciados por la originalidad y excelencia de Joni Mitchell como compositora, guitarrista, pianista y cantante.

Laura Ros, prestigiosa y premiada autora, cantante y guitarrista argentina, encontró en Joni la inspiración para embarcarse en este mundo de melodías simples e inmensamente complejas, de rebeldías creativas, del desorden de las afinaciones de las guitarras para lograr ese sonido que sólo Joni podía crear.

Acompañada en batería y percusión por Federico Gil Solá (Wire Train, Divididos) y en bajo por Alito Spina (Iván Noble, Palo Pandolfo & La Hermandad), Laura se dispone a transitar el repertorio de Joni sin perderse a ella misma en el intento; una combinación difícil de lograr y Laura lo consigue. Un enorme desafío para la voz y para la musicalidad de cualquier artista. Laura se dispone a transitar el repertorio de Joni, guitarra y voz.

Afinaciones y tonalidades originales, adaptaciones a guitarra de temas compuestos en piano y dulcimer, diferentes épocas, diferentes Jonis, incluyendo temas de Clouds, Ladies of the Canyon, Blue, Court and Spark, The Hissing of Summer Lawns, Hejira, Wild Things Run Fast y Night Ride Home; todo esto reflejado en un show imperdible.

Nota sobre las afinaciones

Joni utilizó para componer más de 50 afinaciones de guitarra diferentes, muchas creadas por ella. Lo que implica, además de un ajuste de afinación entre canciones, un cambio completo de lógica en las posiciones de la mano que pulsa los acordes. Laura se propuso, nos sólo respetar las afinaciones originales sino adaptar a guitarra algunas canciones originalmente compuestas en piano o dulcimer, pensando la adaptación lejos del lugar tradicional, buscando una afinación alternativa que le diera al tema ese sonido que, en esta fantasía, Joni le hubiera dado de tocarlo en la guitarra. 21/5000 mas informacion aqui / More information here
