Lisa Hannigan and Loah – announced to join an array of starts for The Songs of Joni Mitchell Irish Tour

Celebrating one of the world’s finest songwriters, through the unique voices of the artists she continues to inspire. Following a revered debut at The Roundhouse in April 2024, a string of sold out performances and widespread critical acclaim, The Songs of Joni Mitchell returns this autumn with an extraordinary lineup of artists paying tribute to one of the greatest songwriters of all time. The Songs of Joni Mitchell has just announced their show in the Town Hall Theatre, Galway (28th October), Dolan’s Warehouse, Limerick (29th October), and the 3Olympia Theatre, Dublin (30th October).

Jesca Hoop, Kate Stables (This Is The Kit) & Lail Arad, acclaimed singer-songwriters in their own right, will perform intimate interpretations of their favourite Joni Mitchell songs in a loving ode to one of the finest songwriters of all time. They will be joined by Richard Sears on piano and Lisa Hannigan & Loah as special guests in London and Dublin.

The Songs Of Joni Mitchell, originally conceived and curated by Lail Arad to mark Joni Mitchell’s 80th birthday and hosted by Cerys Matthews, was described as “a perfect celebration of Joni Mitchell” (Get In Her Ears), packed with “heartfelt and intricate performances” from Emeli Sandé, Eska, Jesca Hoop, Kate Stables, Lail Arad, Olivia Chaney, Sam Amidon and Vashti Bunyan. 

Jesca Hoop, just a few months prior, presented Legend: The Joni Mitchell Story, the award-winning 6-part BBC Radio documentary and podcast about the life of Joni Mitchell lending further gravitas to the event. 


Born out of a mutual love of Joni Mitchell – and tour bus bonding over their other favourite artists –  Hoop and Arad are joining forces to launch Songs Of, a rolling concert series celebrating the world’s finest songwriters, through the unique voices of those they’ve inspired.
