about this event
The Big Yellow Tambourine Man Band 2026 – a live tribute to Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell at Cranleigh Arts.
Joni Mitchell and Bob Dylan are both ranked in Rolling Stone’s ‘Top Ten Singer-Songwriters
of All Time’ and their legacy is honoured in this stunning tribute from The Big Yellow
Tambourine Man Band.
With unrivalled musical authenticity this multi-instrumentalist five-piece covers all the hits
including ‘Like a Rolling Stone’, ‘Both Sides Now’, ‘Blowin’ in the Wind’ and ‘Big Yellow Taxi’,
fronted by Bob Thomson and Isabelle Nutton as Bob and Joni.
An exhilarating evening of songwriting genius, expertly presented with passion and humour.
Audiences will be taken on a journey through Joni’s and Bob’s histories, poetry and artistry,
their trademark guitars and pianos backed by a full band and augmented with the evocative
sounds of the Wurlitzer, harmonica and dulcimer.
Be totally swept along on the trip by loving recreations of the pair’s most recognisable finery,
with stops in Greenwich Village, Laurel Canyon, Isle of Wight and beyond. This talented and
enigmatic freewheelin’ five-piece with an eye for detail will make you feel like you’re really
there, man…
“Not just another tribute… The best we've ever seen.”
“Transportational harmonies.”
“Really superb- taken right back to the ‘60s and ‘70s.”
