Touching on genres ranging from rock, country, folk, light opera, big band and mariachi, Elizabeth Ward Land has found her perfect vocal match in this salute to the great Linda Ronstadt, for which she received the 2020 Bistro Award for Outstanding Tribute Show. She was a vision of understated chic, clad in a black sleeveless jersey blouse and vintage black beaded trousers, which she accessorized with a narrow pale blue silk scarf embellished with bright blue beading and fringe, a sparkly crystal necklace, bracelets, dangling earrings, and crystal embellished sandals.

Directed by Alan Muraoka, with Music Supervision and arrangements by Brad Simmons, the concert featured special guests Madison Stratton and Joel Waggoner. The musicians included Brad Simmons on the keys, Kevin Kuhn on guitar, Arei Sekiguchi on drums and Craig Klonowski on bass/cello.
