Recorded By LeMobile live at The Music Center, Los Angeles, CA on November 7th, 2018 this live concert was to tribute Joni Mitchell’s 75th birthday. Released in 2019.
Brandi Carlile performed on three songs including:
A Case of You – which was performed by Kris Kristofferson (who was showing the tough outcomes of his neuro illness – and Brandi Carlile supported him through the song in a gentle up-lifting way. Worth watching the clip on YouTube).
Down to You – which Brandi Carlile performed solo
Big Yellow Taxi – the final “all-in” song.
Notes on this concert:
It’s at this concert Brandi Carlile met Jeff Haynes on percussion who subsequently toured on the 2022 In These Silent Days Tour.
It’s also at this concert where Brandi Carlile famously gave her wife ‘one job’ – which was to get a signed poster, and when that didn’t happen, Catherine Carlile subsequently got in touch with Joni, met with her for an afternoon to get the signature as surprise, which started the beginning of “the rest is history” – relationship between Brandi Carlile and Joni Mitchell.
And thus the “Joni Jam’s” began not long after. You can read about that story in Broken Horses, Brandi Carliles memoir from 2021.
