Joni at 70 - Songs of Joni Mitchell; Nov 9, Gateshead, England

Posted July 28, 2013

This year Joni Mitchell turns 70. BBC multi award winning vocalists Ian Shaw and Claire Martin have themselves recorded many of her songs (Shaw’s 2006 ‘Drawn To All Things’, Linn Records).

Mitchell’s beautifully crafted confessionals resonate so effectively in this, now famous, duo setting from the seminal, now legendary, singer-songwriter bible “Blue” to her later musings on world issues, this powerful and intimate show is not to be missed.
