Joni Mitchell – Age 78

If you’ve not heard of the singer Joni Mitchell, now’s a good time to rectify that. After all, any artiste with 10 Grammy Awards and a Hall of Fame induction has undoubtedly proved their mettle. But before Mitchelle achieved her iconic status in front of a global audience, she performed in nightclubs since 1964.

Fast forward to today, and most of us know the lyrics of her hits. And when we say hits, we mean songs like “Coyote,” “A Case of You,” and 1971 “River.” Although she’d broken hearts after retiring from music, Mitchelle seems to keep finding her way back to her teeming fans.
