54 Below to Present Blake Pfeil's Ode to Joni Mitchell Next Month

54 BELOW, Broadway's Supper Club, presents Blake Pfeil in The BBC, 1970 on Saturday, July 25. On October 9, 1970, the BBC aired Joni Mitchell in Concert, an intimate and acoustic portrait that spotlighted several of her career-defining songs, including "Chelsea Morning," "Big Yellow Taxi," and "Both Sides Now."

In his 54 Below debut, up-and-coming singer/songwriter Blake Pfeil set up a challenge for himself: to pen and perform a new song as a mirrored response to each of the songs sung by Ms. Mitchell during the famed BBC broadcast. An eclectic walk between the realms of folk and pop, Mr. Pfeil's theatrically-charged melodic and poetic sensibilities weave a modern tapestry that examines humanity's continued search for joy.

The evening is co-conceived and directed by Ms. Sharone Halevy, in her subsequent 54 Below debut.

Blake Pfeil in The BBC, 1970 plays 54 Below (254 West 54th Street) on Saturday, July 25 at 11:30 PM. There is a $10-30 cover charge and $20 food and beverage minimum. Tickets and information are available at www.54Below.com. Tickets on the day of performance after 4:00 are only available by calling (646) 476-3551.
