Acclaimed singer/songwriters Zervas & Pepper present 'This Flight Tonight' an intimate acoustic tribute to the music of Joni Mitchell.

Featuring songs such as 'California', 'Blue', 'Woodstock' 'Both Sides Now', 'Coyote', 'Big Yellow Taxi', 'A Case Of You', and many more..

Zervas & Pepper are Welsh Singer/Songwriters Paul Zervas and Kathryn Pepper that have been creating and performing original music for over a decade professionally. The duo and their recording/touring band enjoy cult success on the UK and European Folk/Americana scene and have released five critically-acclaimed studio albums and undertaken countless live headline and support tours, receiving strong national and international network radio support throughout their career and their original music garnering praise and accolades from the likes of CSN&Y legend David Crosby, BBC DJ's Mark Radcliffe, Bob Harris, Lauren Laverne and Don Letts.

As young songwriters Zervas & Pepper like many music fans were beguiled by Mitchell's music.. “This music had such a profound effect on me that I completely immersed myself within Joni's albums. Musically complex, lyrically intriguing.. I became an avid listener.. I learned to use my voice in ways I hadn't for my early bands” Kathryn recalls.

"We've thought long and hard about the type of show we ourselves would love to see as lifelong fans of Joni Mitchell's music. We kept returning to what we consider to be the nucleus of Mitchell's work, that pivotal break-out period 1968-1976 Reprise/Asylum Record era with the voice, guitar and piano front and centre. An intimate acoustic vibe that should feel like the audience is having a private listening session at Joni's house in Laurel Canyon during the summer of love. Whilst we may not be able to actually fly in Crosby, Stills & Nash, James Taylor or Mama Cass.. we hope to invoke that spirit in our show."
