Joni Mitchell, the iconic singer-songwriter, has announced her first solo concert in Los Angeles in 24 years. This comes after her recent live performances, marking a significant return to the stage after a couple of decades of absence. The announcement has sparked excitement among fans and music enthusiasts.

Having surprised the audience with a set at the 2022 Newport Folk Festival and headlining the Gorge Amphitheater in Washington last summer, Joni Mitchell has proven that her musical prowess remains undiminished. Despite being surrounded by famous friends and well-wishers, including the likes of Brandi Carlile, Mitchell delivered strong performances, even showcasing her guitar skills.

Notably, Mitchell joined Brandi Carlile onstage for a few songs at a recent LA show, further igniting anticipation for her upcoming live performances. This weekend, she is set to make her debut performance at the Grammys, adding to the momentum leading up to her headlining show in Los Angeles, a city she has long been associated with.

The upcoming concert, scheduled for 10/19 at the Hollywood Bowl, will feature special appearances by Brandi Carlile and the ever-changing backing band known as the Joni Jam. While specific guest names have not been disclosed, Mitchell’s previous shows have seen collaborations with renowned artists such as Annie Lennox, Sarah McLachlan, Wynonna Judd, Marcus Mumford, Lucius, Wendy & Lisa, and Blake Mills.

At 80 years old and having overcome a brain aneurysm in 2015, Joni Mitchell’s return to the stage holds significant sentimental value for fans. With tickets set to go on sale Friday, there is heightened anticipation for what promises to be a memorable and emotionally charged performance. Fans are urged to seize the opportunity to witness this legendary artist live while they can.
