ABC/Image Group LAMartina McBride will pay tribute to Linda Ronstadt Saturday, April 23 at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, as the iconic singer receives the Grammy Lifetime Achievement award. JD Souther will honor Ronstadt as well, with Latin Grammy winner Lila Downs commemorating her work in that genre.
Fellow Lifetime Achievement recipients Earth, Wind & Fire will perform on the Grammy Salute to Music Legends too. Actor Andy Garcia and his band the CineSon All Stars will remember the Queen of Salsa, Celia Cruz, with Ruth Brown, Herbie Hancock, Jefferson Airplane, and RUN DMC being honored at the same time.
Fred Foster, who was instrumental in the career of Dolly Parton and is set to be inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame this year, will get the Grammy Trustees Award.
You’ll be able to watch the show later this year on Great Performances on PBS. Expect more performers to be announced in the coming days.
