Katie Boeck
December 9, 2021 | Live From the Divide
This small, intimate venue is the perfect setting to see this Broadway songstress perform Joni Mitchell's album "Blue" from start to finish, in celebration of 50 years since its release. Both a tribute to a musical hero and an exploration of vulnerability and emotional fragility through interwoven narratives, Katie captures Joni's soaring range, playful textures, and haunting hues in a way that few can emulate.

Big Head Todd and the Monsters
