Nedra Talley Ross, last surviving member of The Ronettes, dies at 80

Nedra Talley Ross, the last surviving member of the iconic 1960s girl group The Ronettes, has died at the age of 80.

Her daughter, Nedra K. Ross, said the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee died Sunday morning at her home, surrounded by family. In a social media post, she wrote that her mother “went home to be with the Lord” at about 8:30 a.m., noting she was “safe in her own bed at home with her family close, knowing she was loved.”

Ross performed alongside her cousins Estelle Bennett and Ronnie Spector in The Ronettes, which rose to fame in the early 1960s after signing with producer Phil Spector. The group became known for defining hits such as “Be My Baby” and “Baby I Love You,” helping shape the sound and style of the era’s girl-group pop.

The Ronettes achieved international success, including popularity in the United Kingdom, and famously opened for The Beatles during their final U.S. tour in 1966. Decades later, their music continued to resonate, with the group returning to the Billboard Hot 100 top 10 in 2021 with “Sleigh Ride,” marking a record-setting gap between top 10 appearances.

In 2007, The Ronettes were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, cementing their legacy in music history. The group’s influence endured even after the deaths of Estelle Bennett in 2009 and Ronnie Spector in 2022.

Tributes from family and official pages described Ross as a defining voice in the trio’s legacy, remembering her as a “light” whose voice, style, and presence helped shape a sound that changed music and continues to endure.
