The OMGs are ringing through the Columbia River Gorge today.<\/p>\n

Washington folk rocker and executor of holy-bleep musical moments Brandi Carlile went on \u201cThe Daily Show with Trevor Noah\u201d Wednesday night to drop her latest pinch-me bombshell. Folk music all-timer and Carlile jam buddy Joni Mitchell is set to join her as part of Carlile’s annual Echoes Through the Canyon concerts at the Gorge Amphitheatre.<\/p>\n

Carlile’s gone increasingly big with her birthday weekend blowouts at the landmark Washington venue, reuniting the surviving members of Soundgarden in 2021. But the 2023 edition looks to be the biggest yet, expanding to two nights June 9-10. The first will feature a headlining set from Carlile and her band, while Mitchell and the \u201cJoni Jam\u201d headlines night two, with Carlile opening. Friday night’s opener and the full crew of Joni Jam participants is not yet known.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo one’s been able to buy a ticket to see Joni Mitchell play in 20 years, so this is enormous,\u201d Carlile told Noah. \u201cAnd she’s so excited because she it’s close to Canada and some of her Canadian fans. \u2026 I can’t believe it’s happening, but it’s happening and she’s going to crush it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tickets go on sale to the public at 10 am Oct. 28, with presales for Citi card holders (10 am Oct. 25 to 10 pm Oct. 27) and Carlile’s Bramily fan club members starting earlier. (Details at brandicarlile.com\/tour.)<\/p>\n

The music world was captivated this summer when Mitchell joined Carlile and an all-star cast at this year’s Newport Folk Festival, marking Mitchell’s first public performance in years. It was the first time Mitchell had performed since a 2015 brain aneurysm. <\/p>\n

As Carlile and Mitchell became fast friends in recent years, Carlile helped organize jam sessions with a rotating crew of music A-listers at Mitchell’s home in Los Angeles. Now, these informal \u201cJoni jams\u201d are coming to the big stage in Washington state. pretty cool.<\/p>\n
