Joni Mitchell was one of the most highly regarded and influential songwriters of the 20th century. Her melodious tunes support her poetic and often very personal lyrics to make her one of the most authentic artists of her time.
The distinctive and differing voices of Jan and Caitlin combine for a performance offering a wide variety from Joni Mitchell’s legendary songbook, including Woodstock and Circle Game.
Join us as these performers pay homage to Joni's compositions, which never tire in their intensity or magic.
“Caitlin’s bubbly personality and between-item patter certainly had the audience engaged as did her sublime vocals and keyboard playing. ”
