Hejira (album) Hejira is the eighth studio album by Canadian singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell, released in 1976 on Asylum Records. Its material was written during a period of frequent travel in late 1975 and early 1976, and reflects Mitchell's experiences on the road during that time.

The acoustic guitar appears only on one track, ‘Blue Hotel Room’ and the percussion throughout is, for the most part, understated.
