This Flight Tonight – The Songs of Joni Mitchell – Whitley Bay
Zervas and Pepper bring This Flight Tonight, an intimate acoustic tribute to Joni Mitchell, to Playhouse Whitley Bay, performing Blue in its entirety alongside Joni’s finest songs from 1968 to 1976.
Formed in 2023 by acclaimed songwriters Paul Zervas and Kathryn Pepper, the five-piece band recreates Mitchell’s early performances note for note, with conga, bass, open-tuned acoustic and electric guitars, dulcimer, piano and voice front and centre. Described by the duo as musical purists staying true to Mitchell’s original vision, the set draws from million-selling albums including Song to a Seagull, Clouds, Ladies of the Canyon, Court and Spark and, most prominently, the 1971 landmark Blue.
