Biography

A singular voice in modern music, Joni Mitchell emerged from the Canadian folk scene of the 1960s to become a transformative singer-songwriter. Characterised by deeply personal lyrics, a distinctive command of open-tuned guitar and a sophisticated harmonic vocabulary, she expanded the conventions of the genre. Her work evolved to merge folk with pop, rock and, most notably, jazz, influencing generations of artists across the musical spectrum. Mitchell's trajectory from the confessional folk of 'Blue' to the complex orchestrations of her later work defined her as an artist of continuous sonic exploration.
