Singer-songwriter
Joni Mitchell, responsible for hit songs such as “Both Sides, Now” and
“Big Yellow Taxi,” is widely considered 1960s and ’70s folk royalty.
Joni
Mitchell Today: Folk Singer Performs at the 2024 Grammy Awards at Age
80. Prior to the 2024 Grammys, singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell was
already a nine-time trophy winner. On February 4, the 80-year-old graced
the Grammy stage to collect the award for Best Folk Album, then again
in a career first: as a performer during the ceremony. Alongside
musician Brandi Carlile, Mitchell sang her hit song “Both Sides, Now.”
Mitchell has rarely performed in recent years. A 2015 brain aneurysm
left her hospitalized for weeks, and she’s had to relearn to play guitar
in addition to other basic motor functions, like walking. In a major
feat along her recovery journey, Mitchell performed her first
full-length concert in more than 20 years at the 2022 Newport Folk
Festival. Her surprise set resulted in the live album At Newport, which
won this year’s folk album category.
She recorded her first album in
1968 before finding commercial and critical success with Ladies of the
Canyon, Blue, and Court and Spark, three albums from the early 1970s.
Mitchell’s songs have been covered by the likes of Judy Collins and
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, with her emotionally vulnerable lyrics
influencing scores of musicians. Her impact on music has earned her
induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Songwriters Hall of
Fame, and the Gershwin Prize.
Singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell was
born Roberta Joan Anderson on November 7, 1943, in Fort Macleod, Canada.
Her famous last name mirrors that of her first husband, Chuck Mitchell.
At
age 9, Joni contracted polio, and it was during her recovery in the
hospital that she began performing and singing to patients. After
teaching herself how to play the guitar, she went off to art college and
quickly emerged as one of the leading folk performers of the late 1960s
and ’70s.
