Netflix to Release Documentary on Music Legend Linda Ronstadt

Netflix has announced the upcoming release of a new documentary focused on the life and career of iconic American singer Linda Ronstadt. Titled Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice, the film is set to premiere on the streaming platform later this year and promises an intimate look at one of the most versatile and celebrated voices in music history.

Directed by award-winning filmmakers Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman, the documentary traces Ronstadt’s journey from her childhood in Tucson, Arizona, to becoming a Grammy-winning artist who redefined genre boundaries with her effortless transitions between rock, country, folk, opera, and Latin music. The film also delves into her cultural heritage, political activism, and the personal challenges she has faced, including her battle with Parkinson’s disease, which led to her retirement from singing.

Ronstadt’s influence on American music is deeply profound, with hits such as “You’re No Good,” “Blue Bayou,” and “When Will I Be Loved” earning her widespread acclaim and a devoted fanbase. The documentary will feature archival footage, rare recordings, and new interviews with collaborators, friends, and fellow artists, including Dolly Parton, Bonnie Raitt, Emmylou Harris, and Don Henley.

Netflix’s release of The Sound of My Voice adds to its growing catalog of music-centered documentaries and biopics, reinforcing the platform’s commitment to celebrating cultural and artistic legacies. Music fans and documentary lovers alike can look forward to a poignant, beautifully crafted tribute to a groundbreaking artist whose voice defined generations.

An official release date is expected to be confirmed in the coming weeks.
