The exhibit “traces communities of visionary singers, songwriters, and musicians who set about reinvigorating the sounds of pop and rock by infusing elements of country, bluegrass, and folk music,” noted the Country HOF. “Fostered in local nightclubs and late-night jam sessions, the resulting musical fusion, ‘country-rock,’ made a lasting impact on popular music.”

Ronstadt, 78, retired from singing in 2011 after she was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, per Billboard. Ronstadt was elected to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2019 and was one of the recipients at the Kennedy Center Honors in 2019.

In January of 2024 Walk the Line producer James Keach and Ronstadt’s manager John Boylan announced that a music biopic was in the works about the singing icon starring Selena Gomez as Ronstadt, per The Hollywood Reporter. The film is still in development.
