StArs Align For Joni At 75

-

An all-star group of musicians is set to ring in Joni Mitchell’s 75th birthday in November by paying tribute to the timeless songs that took her from the nightclubs of Saskatchew­an to internatio­nal acclaim. The two-day concert in Los Angeles will feature a diverse lineup of musical luminaries including folk-rock legend Graham Nash, jazz artist Norah Jones and Queen of Funk Chaka Khan. Canadian artists Diana Krall and Rufus Wainwright are also set to honour the Prairie-raised icon. Other performers expected to take the stage include Kris Kristoffer­son, Seal, Los Lobos, Emmylou Harris and Glen Hansard. The concerts will be held on Nov. 6 and 7, the latter marking Mitchell’s actual birthday, at Los Angeles’s Dorothy Chandler Pavilion.
