Joni’s songs have always seemed to come from a deep personal well, but on “Magdalene Laundries” she channels the poignant voice of another - a young girl, angry and defiant in the face of her tragic short life. It is an extraordinary tour de force and I’m honored to sing it on this marvelous tribute to one of our greatest, most enduring artists.
