Happy Birthday Joni!Now touring nationally, The Joni Project is a stunning and dynamic band, and remains a Long Island favorite. For this special show, they will celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Court and Spark album, which they'll perform in its entirety along with other Joni favorites like Big Yellow Taxi, Chelsea Morning, Woodstock, California, Both Sides Now, and Circle Game. Released in 1974, Court and Spark infused the folk-rock style of Joni's previous albums with jazz elements, producing songs like Help Me, Free Man in Paris, Raised on Robbery, and Twisted.
The Joni Project formed as a tribute in sound and spirit to Joni Mitchell, one of music’s greatest and most innovative artists. The band is fronted by Long Island's remarkable multi-instrumentalist and singer Katie Pearlman, who impressively plays Joni's songs in their original open guitar tunings, and also includes jazz and jam band mainstays Dave Berg (guitar), Dan Ehrlich (bass), Alan Lerner (drums), Mark Mancini (keyboards), Steve Finklestein (percussion), Premik Russell Tubbs (saxophone and flute), and Victoria Faiella (backing vocals). Collectively, they have performed with members of the Grateful Dead, The Band, The Doors, the Neville Brothers, and so many others. Together, they bring fresh interpretation to Joni's legendary tunes from their many eras and genres - particularly from the time of her stunning and dynamic collaboration with Jaco Pastorius, Pat Metheny and Michael Brecker.
"The Joni Project is quite simply the finest and most musically sophisticated tribute to Joni on the scene today!"
