Singer/songwriter Joni Mitchell, 80, performed for the first time on the Grammy Awards show Feb. 4, singing her classic ballad “Both Sides Now” to a standing ovation.
In 2015, Mitchell suffered a brain aneurysm, which made it difficult for her to move and speak, let alone perform. Her first public performance since her illness was at the 2023 Newport Folk Festival. A recording of the show, “Joni Mitchell at Newport,” won Best Folk Album at this year’s Grammys. It was Mitchell’s 10th Grammy award.
