The Linda Ronstadt Experience

My 11th "Experience" and I had a delaying, unpleasant experience getting to the show which caused me to miss the first 2 songs...but after getting to my seat and being I love this band so much within minutes I forgot all about it...lol Fantastic show, and I attended the night show too!!!

6/3/24....After seeing the LRE on my hometown green 2 years running (late summer '21 + '22) ...this was my first show indoors making it even more impressive. Had a short chat with Tristan, a couple photos and that night began my trek as a "real" fan leading to 10 more shows over the next 20 months, the last was on 6/1/24. Fantastic musicians and a great bunch every one of them 😀

I have been witness to this incredible band for some 33 months now. The two shows at The Kate on June 1 were both fantastic, as every show I've seen which now numbers 12 With the trivia questions and some injected humor seeing the LRE is truly a "Feel good show" Great band...and Tristan McIntosh is a Gem, a rising star!

This was spectacular. We have seen the Linda Ronstadt Experience three times and have loved all three times. We were disappointed it was rained out the last two summers in Woodbridge, NJ but we will attend the concert again in the future when it performs near us again. We had seen it earlier at the Shea Center at William Patterson University in Wayne in November 2022 and in Philadelphia on October 5, 2023. It is always so much fun.

This band was amazing. I highly recommend this for people of all ages! The show I attended was mostly people 60-80 years old and didn’t get into the show as they could have. Get busy living or get busy dying. Unfortunately that audience was doing the later.

Beautiful venue and the sound was great. Tristans singing was impeccable, I had a great seat and enjoyed once again the after show meet and greet with Tristan and her bandmates Paul, Brad, Ethan, Johnny, and a treat to see Bronson once again play with them. Great show!

I was a big Linda Ronstadt fan and had seen her in concert before. I was very impressed with this group's renditions of every song. Tristan McIntosh has a great voice, and she is accompanied by excellent musicians. I hope to see them again some time.

This show was spectacular. We have seen the Linda Ronstadt Experience now twice and one other time for a part of a show before a thunderstorm hit. We will look forward to seeing it again. We highly recommend it!!! I rate it as a 5 Star.

Tristan MacIntosh, who finished 6th on the 2016 American Idol contest as a 15 year old, has matured into a vocalist of surprising power and depth. She is surrounded by musicians with great skills and talent. We drove 120 miles to the City Winery in Philadelphia from Washington. It was worth the trip! For 90 minutes, we were transported to the 1970s and ‘80s. My wife described Tristan’s covers of the greatest cover artist in pop music history as nothing less than phenomenal. If you get the chance to see “The Linda Ronstadt Experience”…GO!!!!!! If your children or grandchildren do not even know who Linda Ronstadt is( like ours!), take them to The Linda Ronstadt Experience and introduce them to TWO of the greatest pop singers they’ll ever hear…Tristan MacIntosh channeling Linda Ronstadt! Five stars!

On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being outstanding I’d rate this show an 11. Tristan was just phenomenal. She has obviously studied Linda’s singing thoroughly and has the talent to pull off Linda to a T. It was obviously that she and her band have dug up some live performances by Linda and used some of what they learned in their own live show. This was obvious in their renditions of “You’re No Good” and “Willi’” https://youtu.be/fLTmb_9den0?si=FCD3QUI10XYfYKk0

Tristan is amazing! She has a beautiful voice, sounds so much and looks like Linda when she was younger. She has a wonderfully talented band to support her, too. I got to see them in Decatur, IL, and I’m hoping that they will come further into the Midwest, specifically Missouri. Keep up the good work, Paul and Tristan! You guys were amazing!

The band & singer portraying Linda Ronstadt were very good. There were issues with a couple of (?) patrons that were talking loudly with employees & friends which was very annoying. As a miusician myself I found it very disrespectful to the artists as well as the patrons that wanted to enjoy the show. The sound tech had a good mix & overall the acoustic's in the room were very good. I'm looking forward to seeing additional shows at your venue.

Sound Mix has her voice a bit too low. Hard to hear her during the quietest part of certain songs. She does a great job & the band is excellent. If I could, I'd probably replace a couple songs with a couple I like even better. (Linda had so many great songs) However, I understand they change the song list here & there, so I'd probably want to hear them all. Hard a Great time & hope to see them again before long. You'll love it.

First time at the Musikfest Cafe and I liked the venue. Tristan McIntosh is awesome in her tribute to Linda Ronstadt in the 1970s. I enjoyed her singing and playing trumpet on Johnny Cash's Ring of Fire. Tristan sang the alway challenging Patsy Cline's Crazy and nailed it. The band was solid and it was a great evening of entertainment. This will not be only time to see this band play!

Tristan and the band sounded great! She has a tremendously versatile voice, great technical ability and stage presence. The band backed her up beautifully. Extra praise goes to the steel guitar player, who also doubled at times on guitar. Sound system/PA was wonderful. Well done! The venue allowed a few developmentally challenged and neuro-diverse audience members to dance and clap (out of time) and talk to the band up front near the stage. I sat up front and gotta say that was distracting and less than great.

Awesome! Tristan McIntosh more than fills Linda's Shoes. I've seen her 2 years in a row. Never Fails to Please. I met her and commented on her performance to her. I'm just amazed at how good she was for being 17. And her stage presence with the band is phenomenal. Impressive!

Absolutely Fantastic from beginning to end!!! I cannot wait to see the show again!!! Sat in the front row and Tristan McIntosh was sensational, charismatic, and talented! She truly captured Linda Ronstadt and received a well deserved standing ovation. The band was terrific also! Great night out, and looking forward to the return of this wonderful show!!

There's just no way to go wrong by seeing this show. Linda's song catalog is broad and you will know most, if not all, of the songs. The band is solid and Tristan McIntosh has not only an incredibly gorgeous voice, but the talent to use it to full effect. She handles the soft and delicate tunes and powerhouse belting with equal ease, and has terrific stage presence.

Tristan McIntosh has all the poise and talent needed to pull off Linda Ronstadt's catalog, and then some. Almost everybody will know at least 90 percent of these songs, and between the very talented band and Tristan's unmatched vocals, you're guaranteed to love even those you don't. You cannot possibly go wrong seeing this band play. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
