VERONNEAU - Blue Tapestry - Celebrating Joni Mitchell & Carole King

VERONNEAU’s Blue Tapestry is a concert honoring Joni Mitchell’s *Blue* and Carole King’s *Tapestry*, two landmark albums that helped establish the singer-songwriter era and placed women at the center of popular music as both writers and performers. Award-winning duo Lynn Veronneau and Ken Avis reinterpret songs including “A Case of You,” “Blue,” “You’ve Got a Friend,” and “You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman,” while sharing stories about the music and its post-Woodstock cultural setting.

The Quebecoise vocalist and UK guitarist have performed the program in the United Kingdom, at Blues Alley, and at Strathmore. Their *Blue Tapestry* album reached the Top 10 of the U.S. Folk Charts in 2025. Veronneau and Avis tour throughout Europe, the United States, and Canada, and have received seven WAMMIE Awards for work in album, vocal, band, and recording categories across world and jazz music. Their festival appearances include DC Jazz Fest, the Florida Folk Festival, and Scotland’s Callander Blues & Jazz Festival.
