Hejira’ is an outstanding 7-piece band set up to celebrate and honour the masterpiece works of Joni Mitchell, mostly from the late ‘70s. Having released the albums ‘The Hissing of Summer Lawns’, ‘Hejira’, ‘Don Juan’s Reckless Daughter’ and ‘Mingus’, Joni then toured briefly with a band formed from the crème de la crème of contemporaneous musicians (Pat Metheny, Lyle Mays, Michael Brecker, Jaco Pastorius and Don Alias). The tour was recorded, producing the much-lauded live album, ‘Shadows And Light’; it is from this work that the band Hejira is drawing the spirit and body of its repertoire. Comprising highly experienced, world class musicians, Hejira is fronted by the brilliant Hattie Whitehead who not only has – in her own way – assimilated the poise, power and beauty of Joni’s vocals, but also plays guitar with Joni’s stylistic mannerisms. Expect an evening of the ‘great’ songs from Mitchell’s back catalogue, such and ‘Amelia’, The Hissing Of Summer Lawns’, ‘Coyote’, ‘Hejira’, ’Song For Sharon’, ‘In France They Kiss on Main Street’ etc.!

Join Jean Lenke for her 2nd annual Joni Mitchel Celebration Concert, honoring Joni's joy and sadness and musical genius!

"I can’t remember where I heard the quote, ”When it’s all said and done, Joni Mitchell will go down in history as the greatest songwriter to have ever lived.”, but I do remember thinking, wow, they are so right. Joni's music is as complex as her poetic lyrics are heart piercing. She is visionary, an example for us all - true to herself and continuing to create, still. Exploring her endless catalogue of music is an adventure I feel privileged to be on." ~ Jean

"This year's concert is dedicated to pianist Jeremy Bacon who left us just weeks after our Joni concert with him last year. I know his spirit will be with us. He so loved her music." ~ Jean Lenke
