Linda Ronstadt talks about her family, culture, and her career (with English subtitles) in a visual online conversation with fellow music trailblazers Aida Cuevas and La Marisoul. Live musical performances follow. Somewhere Out There was written by Cynthia Weil with a vocal duet by Marisol "La Marisoul" Hernandez, David Hidalgo, backed up by Mariachi Garibaldi de Jaime Cuellar, arrangement by Cheche Alara & Jimmy K.

The Soraya (formerly Valley Performing Arts Center), in Northridge, CA celebrates the legacy of Linda Ronstadt, whose music knows no borders in a special concert filmed live on our stage for television and online audiences, broadcast in January 2021. The #LindaRonstadt live musical tribute special was produced and directed by Cheche Alara. A Tribute to Linda Ronstadt at The Soraya was the winner of the 2021 Imagen Awards for Best Variety show. The studio album Treinta Días by the group La Santa Cecilia won a Grammy Award for Best Latin Rock, Urban or Alternative Album in 2014.
Linda Ronstadt announced her retirement from music in 2011, and in 2013, the legendary singer shared the reason why: she had developed a rare brain disease called progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). A form of Parkinsonism that is distinct from Parkinson's itself, PSP is a motor disorder that causes problems with walking, balance, eye movements, swallowing, and fine motor coordination. Her first symptom was a sudden inability to sing. Looking back on the "five or six years" immediately following her first symptoms, Linda said she continued to appear on stage, relying heavily on her bands and backup singers to disguise the problem. "I have a form of Parkinsonism that doesn't respond to standard Parkinson's meds, so there's no treatment for what I have," she explained to AARP.
