Joni Mitchell survived a Brain Aneurysm in 2015 

In 2022, Mitchell returned to the Grammys but her appearance back then was a more concentrated one after she struggled with a brain aneurysm in 2015. She won the Best Historical Album Award that year for her album Archives, Vol 1: The Early Years (1963-1967). 

Speaking about her journey with the brain condition to CBS, the singer revealed that she had to teach herself to play the guitar again. “I am learning,” she told CBS Mornings correspondent Anthony Mason in July 2022. “I am looking at videos that are on the net to see where I put my fingers, you know. It's amazing what an aneurysm knocks out. How to get out of chair! You don’t know how to get out of a bed. You have to learn all these things by rote again,” she added.
