Ladies of the Canyon
The world premiere of Ladies of the Canyon is on stage at Harmony House in Hunter River on select dates until September 6.
With Ladies of the Canyon, Alicia Toner and Mike Ross created one of Harmony House’s signature docu-concerts, taking audience members on a deep dive into the music of this unique time and place.
Joni Mitchell, Mama Cass, Crosby, Stills and Nash, Carole King, The Eagles—these are just a handful of the extraordinary songwriters who took up residence in the legendary neighbourhood of Laurel Canyon in California.

Young up-and-coming performer Emi Smith will step in to cover various roles on select dates through the summer.
