The Joni Mitchell Songbook with Both Sides Now

Just saw you at Stafford Gatehouse and wanted to say thanks for a wonderful evening. The band totally nailed it! Never thought I'd see those songs performed live with such skill and attention to detail. Hejira now on car CD player. Thanks again – please return soon.

We saw the gig in Worcester and wanted to thank you! You cover the songs beautifully but add your own twists. Basically, you just did the concert my teenage self would have dreamed of going to.

We just wanted to say how much we enjoyed the show. The singing, the timing and the musicianship was superb. We saw Joni in the 80s, have every album – and you did her proud.

Of all the leading lights of the West Coast singer-songwriter movement, Joni Mitchell remains its most influential figure, with a body of work running the gamut from folk to mainstream pop, right through to modern jazz and back again.

The Joni Mitchell Songbook brings together a group of top-drawer musicians, led by singer Sarah Miller and keyboard player Aidan Goldstraw, whose devotion to the artist’s back catalogue shines through in performance. This is no ordinary tribute act – it’s an evening spent together, exploring the work of a musical genius.

This comprehensive survey of Joni’s career includes landmarks such as Big Yellow Taxi (her most covered song), River and A Case of You (both from the breakthrough album Blue), the radio hits of Help Me and Free Man In Paris (from double-platinum Court and Spark) and the jazz-infused stylings of In France They Kiss On Main St (The Hissing of Summer Lawns) and Coyote (Hejira).

New date: Bury Met

We’re delighted to be visiting venues new to us such as Lichfield Guildhall, Bridgnorth’s Theatre on the Steps and Cardiff’s Acapela Studios. We’re also thrilled to be back at some of our favourite venues from 2018 – The Musician in Leicester, Alexander’s in Chester, Stafford Gatehouse Theatre, Leek’s Foxlowe Arts Centre and the fabulous Hive in Shrewsbury, where we debuted only a few weeks ago.
