Hejira Celebrating Joni Mitchell

"The UK's best and most convincing take on Joni Mitchell" ~ The Guardian

Hejira is a formidable, highly successful 7-piece touring band, set up in 2023 to celebrate the greatest songs of Joni Mitchell. The band will be fronted by the outstanding vocalist Hattie Whitehead.

They perform Mitchell's masterpiece works from Court & Spark to Wild Things Run Fast; expect to hear classics such as Amelia, Help Me, Hejira, Song For Sharon, A Case Of You, Free Man In Paris, Coyote, Hissing of Summer Lawns, etc.

The band has produced 12 high-quality videos for YouTube, amassing more than 1,000,000 views and thousands of glowing comments. In their short history they have played 120+ shows in the UK and Ireland, including headline features at the EFG London Jazz Festival, Brecon Jazz Festival, Mosely Folk Festival and others. They produced a live album in 2024 which received critical acclaim.

"Hattie Whitehead's voice is spine-shiveringly like Mitchell's, and just as full of delicacy, emotion and intelligence…. They are a formidably tight unit, imparting a practised smoothness to the performances." ~ Jazzwise, Aug 2024
