Taymar presents a heartfelt homage to these iconic artists, bringing their timeless songs to life with warmth, sensitivity and authenticity.

The show features Eva Cassidy's most-loved interpretations from her hugely popular releases including Songbird, Over The Rainbow and Fields of Gold, alongside some of Joni Mitchell’s most treasured songs, including Big Yellow Taxi, A Case of You and Both Sides Now. Drawing on some of the most beloved albums of the 20th century, the performance celebrates the lyrical beauty and enduring influence of two artists whose music continues to inspire audiences around the world.

Her natural stage presence and engaging storytelling create a truly intimate live experience.
