Katie’s Blue tribute

Off the back of 10 sold out shows this year, Katie Noonan has announced more dates to her Australian tour as she presents Joni Mitchell’s Blue.

To commemorate the 50th anniversary of this landmark album, Katie Noonan will be accompanied by a guitarist, and they’ll perform in intimate mode for this special run of shows.

According to Mitchell, Blue was “the purest emotional record that I will ever make in my life… there’s hardly a dishonest note in the vocals.”

“Blue is an album that unequivocally changed my life. From a compositional, lyrical and vocal performance point of view it has inspired me deeply.

“I love that the album was gifted to me from another female artist, and it is an album I regularly recommend to up-and-coming female artists also. Joni’s artistry and music genius is unparalleled, and I absolutely love singing her songs,” Katie said.

Over the past 20 years, five-time ARIA award-winning artist Katie Noonan has proven herself one of Australia’s most hardworking, versatile and prolific artists.

She won praise for her performance of Joni Mitchell’s Blue by critics including the Sydney Morning Herald: “Noonan, whose vocal acrobatics sent shivers down the spine, is ensuring this beloved old album continues to enchant new audiences. Sure to please not only Joni fans but lovers of music and poetry alike, this concert will be a spine-tingling evening you won’t want to miss”.

The tour runs across the country until June with performances on the Sunshine Coast on Friday 9 June at The Events Centre, Caloundra and Saturday 10 Juneat The J Theatre, Noosa.

Tickets for all shows are available from katienoonan.com.au/shows
