Hejira is a project that has rapidly blossomed from an initial ‘one-off gig’ into a highly successful touring band, set up to celebrate the music of Joni Mitchell. In particular, the band performs the masterpiece works that Mitchell captured on her live 1980 album, ‘Shadows and Light’. Much of the success of the group, Hejira, is down to Pete having selected a personnel that are not only great players in their own rights, but also great fans of this music. As with the band of top-drawer players in Joni’s Shadows and Light outfit (Pat Metheny, Lyle Mays, Michael Brecker, Jaco Pastorius and Don Alias), Hejira comprises highly experienced jazz musicians whose primary concern is to serve the music.
