Band leader Stefan Redtenbacher leads a world class quartet, with CVs to prove it, fronted by the mesmerising vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Jana Varga. Collectively, they will explore Joni Mitchell's cherished repertoire to provide a spellbinding 'reimagining' of the classic work of this legendary artist.
Joni's unique song catalogue has intrigued and captivated artists and audiences alike and Stefan caught the bug after 'jamming' a Joni tune during lockdown which, bit by bit, led to a deep dive into the singer's iconic work.
With his multi-million streaming band, Redtenbacher's Funkestra - an exceptional lineup of international musicians with impressive credits, including collaborations with music legends like Bowie, Elton, and Herbie Hancock - Stefan started to rearrange and reimagine the singer's compositions, very much mirroring the creative sensibilities of Joni herself.
This is a genuine artistic 'homage' to Joni's songs, reflecting her own remarkable quest for ongoing creativity with inspired recreations from her catalogue of best-known compositions — all with the implicit blessing of her own official website.
So expect sometimes surprising yet always respectful interpretations of classic songs such as Big Yellow Taxi, A Case of You, Both Sides Now, The River, Woodstock, and many more.
