The Linda Ronstadt Experience, a tribute band featuring American Idol star Tristan McIntosh that showcases the songs of musical legend Linda Ronstadt, returns to the Shea Center for Performing Arts at William Paterson University in Wayne on Saturday, November 4, 2023. The performance will start at 8:00 p.m.
Ronstadt is credited with helping forge the 1970s “country rock” sound with her renditions of classic rock songs by The Eagles, Jackson Browne, Elvis Costello, Warren Zevon, Tom Petty, and more. Her repertoire will be on full display when the band takes the Shea Center stage, performing hits like “You’re No Good,” “When Will I Be Loved,” “That’ll Be the Day,” and “Blue Bayou,” to name a few.
Created in 2018, The Linda Ronstadt Experience was formed to keep Ronstadt’s legacy alive and bring her music into the 21st century after her diagnosis with Parkinson’s made her unable to sing and perform for fans.
McIntosh, who was a finalist during the 2016 American Idol season, creates a stunning portrayal of Ronstadt in the prime of her career. Her formidable vocal talent and stage presence transports audiences to a time when Ronstadt ruled the airwaves as one of the most popular vocalists in music history.
