Drawn to All Things: The Songs of Joni Mitchell is a 2006 studio album by Ian Shaw, recorded in tribute to Joni Mitchell. This was Shaw's first album for Linn Records.

Shaw first encountered Joni Mitchell's music at the age of sixteen when he borrowed her 1971 album Blue from a library, and says that he is still "fascinated and puzzled" by the "immaculate marriage of words and music in her work".^[1]
