Mitchell to support new standards album with orchestra tour

Jazz-folk-pop queen Joni Mitchell is set to take her new album, Both Sides Now, on the road with a twelve-date, eleven-city tour beginning May 12 at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles. Each stop on the tour, which includes a two-night stand at the Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York and may be extended to include more dates, will feature Mitchell performing with a local symphony orchestra.
