The Songs of Joni Mitchell
Following rave reviews from sold out shows, The Songs of Joni Mitchell announces new dates for 2027 - including a very special show at Kelvingrove Art Gallery for Celtic Connections!
Jesca Hoop & Lail Arad, acclaimed singer-songwriters in their own right, will perform intimate interpretations of their favourite Joni Mitchell songs. They’ll be joined by special guest to be announced. Previous guests include Kate Stables (This Is The Kit), Vashti Bunyan, Simon Armitage, Lisa Hannigan, Gail Ann Dorsey, Rachel Sermanni, Jackie Kay, Sam Amidon and Naima Bock. Originally conceived and curated by Lail Arad at London’s Roundhouse to mark Joni Mitchell’s 80th birthday, the show was described as “a perfect celebration of Joni Mitchell” (Get In Her Ears), packed with “heartfelt and intricate performances”.
Jesca Hoop, just a few months prior, presented Legend: The Joni Mitchell Story, the award- winning 6-part BBC Radio documentary and podcast about the life of Joni Mitchell, lending further gravitas to the event. Ahead of their last tour Jesca, Lail and Kate Stables released a companion EP on Small Matter Records: The Songs Of Joni Mitchell Vol. 1. These up close and personal recordings offer fresh interpretations of four treasured Joni songs and provide a lovely hint of what to expect on stage.
